PolyOne’s collaboration with the WaterStep team improved product design and performance for WaterStep's M-100 water purification system. Garratt, president, Performance Products and Solutions, PolyOne Corporation.

Heightened disinfection requires materials that retain mechanical and physical performance in the face of these effective, but harsh, chemistries,” said Matthew Mitchell, director, global marketing, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient. Examples include: •    Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic •    Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation •    Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses

This includes standards for flame retardant performance to IEC 60332-1, another key characteristic to consider.   Processing: Solar panel cables have many performance characteristics, as outlined above.

In order to achieve a lightweight, highly packable, and portable product while maintaining maximum strength and stability in the rollable legs, the designers at Rolatube knew they needed to incorporate a high-performing composite material. The team at Rolatube had a few non-negotiable performance requirements when considering composite material options for the tripod legs.

Drawing from a comprehensive portfolio of specialized colorants and additives, Avient’s on-site experts will showcase various solutions for helping to make single-use or reusable packaging that is beautiful, performs well, and ultimately is more sustainable. Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™, enables unmatched levels of performance and protection  for  end-use  applications,  including  ballistic  personal  protection,  marine  and sustainable infrastructure and outdoor sports  

The new 4020G grade offers up to 50 percent lower haze and reduced impact on the PET recycle stream compared to previous grades, while maintaining the same reliable active oxygen scavenging performance. Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic

They have excellent heat, oil, creep, and abrasion resistance and good operating performance across various temperatures. Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber™, enables unmatched levels of performance and protection for end-use applications, including ballistic personal protection, marine and sustainable infrastructure and outdoor sports  

Available in North America, this PCR content formulation offers comparable performance to prime TPEs and can provide a more sustainable option in applications such as toothbrush grips and other personal care items, as well as certain FDA food-contact items like reusable crates. The expansion of our recycled-content TPE portfolio is rooted in our ongoing commitment to developing sustainable solutions with specialized performance requirements that enable our customers’ innovation and sustainability goals.”
