THE SOLUTION The supplier’s design team approached Avient in hopes of finding an alternative material that could replace leather yet eliminate processing issues. Our design team created a formulation modified for the supplier’s specific processing environment. THE IMPACT The Avient solution eliminated processing issues the supplier had encountered with competitive materials, such as air entrapment and demolding difficulties.

The material is also complicated to process, which can increase costs further. The Avient material is better suited to the etching process than silicone rubber, providing cleaner, sharper details. Additionally, compared to silicone rubber, the TPE is easier and faster to process, as it requires no pre-mixing, curing or adhesives.

THE SOLUTION Maintaining high organoleptic standards while easing processing windows can be difficult. Lower processing temperature was another key for this application—this saves energy and makes start ups or conversions faster, generating less waste. Avient offers GLS TPE cap liner formulations that are suitable for aqueous, acidic and low alcohol beverages processed under ambient, pasteurized or hot fill conditions.

The Quantum™ Motor is one such product, a universal cutting tool in the meat processing industry that helps recover lean meat from fat and tissue. The final solution was pre-colored to match the brand’s existing color palette and eliminate the need for secondary processing steps.

With only one machine required for production of a plastic gear, these formulations can reduce manufacturing steps, processing time and material costs. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information. Avient makes no warranties or guarantees respecting suitability of either Avient’s products or the information for your process or end-use application.

Using a variety of metallic fibers and particles, these compounds have densities similar to traditional metals, while offering design and processing flexibility because of the polymer matrix, which can be extruded, molded, calendered, or thermoformed into the final desired shape. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
