Versaflex™ Non-Blooming TPEs for Consumer Electronics Versaflex™ Low Adhesive Build-up TPE for Protective Film Tack Layer reSound™ Ultra-Low Carbon Footprint TPEs

GLS TPEs for Automotive HVAC Seals: improves driver and passenger safety and comfort with industry-leading TPE technology that has been proven to reduce volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by 50% and fogging by 35% versus existing TPEs for heating / ventilation / air conditioning applications.

Adapter made from TPEs helps consumers avoid overmedicating The shell would be made with a custom-formulated Synprene™ thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) blend that provides resistance to most common medications and is flexible enough for the fins to work as designed. The membrane would be made from a custom-engineered GLS™ Dynaflex™ TPE overmolded onto the shell.

While many companies can measure and manage scope 1 and 2 emissions, the intricacies of obtaining specific scope 3 emissions data for raw materials can pose a challenge for those with net zero or carbon reduction targets. Avient’s PCF Calculator marks a significant breakthrough by a specialty materials solution provider, offering cradle-to-gate emissions data to customers specific to the materials that can contribute to their upstream scope 3 emissions.   This includes the industry-first carbon-neutral thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), reSound™ Ultra-Low Carbon Footprint TPE, launched in 2022.
