PolyOne To Present at the Credit Suisse Basic Materials Conference Reduce Material Costs and Improve Processing with New Foaming Fluoropolymer Wire Insulation Technology PolyOne To Present at the 2014 KeyBanc Capital Markets Basic Materials & Packaging Conference

The materials exhibited warpage, causing an uneven surface in a substantial number of parts produced.  Switching from two blended resins to a single material delivered several key benefits to the manufacturer, including: Reduced drying time: The new material reduced drying time by 70 percent.

The engineers tested the material for shear resistance based on the thickness of the seal. They then modified the material to offer enough heat resistance so it could be overmolded onto polypropylene, the underlying material that provides the gaskets’ rigidity.  The material also can be used in tools originally constructed for halogenated materials with no rework required.

Commercially available in Asia only, the new material solutions are formulated in PA66 with proven laser weldability. To support manufacturers using its new materials, PolyOne also delivers a range of value-added services, including part design, material compatibility evaluation, and laser welding process selection. The company adds value to global customers and improves sustainability through formulating materials, such as:

A weak, less elastomeric material will creep more than a higher strength, more resilient material. Flexural modulus measures the materials’ resistance to bending, and hardness measures the materials’ resistance to penetration. Generally, higher hardness materials have better abrasion resistance.

In-house Services for Avient’s Specialty Materials Each application is unique and requires careful evaluation of materials to meet the various requirements. Our in-house material testing capabilities include:

Design and materials are intrinsically connected in the best products. Materials are the essential building blocks of all products. Equal parts science and art, intrinsic design can transform challenges into change faster and more elegantly than if materials were an afterthought.
