Our materials science expertise touches virtually every end market—from building and construction to healthcare, from energy to defense.

The discharge process Solution Details Discharge is a de-oxygenation process whereby the oxygen molecule of the dischargeable dye is cracked from the dye molecule. Discharge will vary from dye lot number to dye lot number, and by the number of shirts being discharged.

– At Strategies in Light 2017, PolyOne is showcasing the Nuvi™ light, an award-winning outdoor landscape light from Hinkley Lighting that relies on Resilience™ LS technology. Landscape lighting manufacturers have historically shied away from polymers due to the challenges of temperature extremes and weather exposure in outdoor settings.

The trade show runs from October 16 - 20, 2018. EDITORS: For a high-resolution image, please click here:  Fakuma 2018 images from PolyOne

From the Idea Center More Understanding the needs and challenges of photovoltaic cable Hear from Meenali Parsekar, Product Manager of Wire and Cable at Avient, to learn more on his take on manufacturing photovoltaic cable.

However, transitioning from metal to plastic requires thorough technical analysis and preparation. Predictive simulation technology uses conventional (isotropic) and advanced (anisotropic) modeling data from material characterizations, mold filling analysis, and finite element analysis (FEA) to more accurately forecast performance and potential failure points.

A new eBook from Avient titled, “Smarter Materials™: High-Performance Thermoplastics” can help answer these questions and be a valuable resource for anyone considering the use of these advanced materials, which are ideally suited for very demanding environments.  If you’re blazing ahead with additive manufacturing, here are some suggested guidelines excerpted from the eBook:

As this existing steel pipeline infrastructure ages, the need for repair or replacement to prevent failures from corrosion increases; 80% of inspection costs are spent on monitoring corrosion of steel pipes.* To improve longevity in these critical components, the industry is shifting to alternatives such as spoolable reinforced thermoplastic pipe (RTP). Video Polystrand Unidirectional Composite Tape Continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite tape is slit to custom widths from 2" to 24".
