The hose manufacturer decided to explore other material options that would meet requirements such as excellent colorability, good surface appearance, high flow for optimal productivity, and of course, compliance with U.S. In addition to its excellent colorability and high flow, the Versalloy solution possessed a lower specific gravity and resulted in lower scrap rates compared to the competitive TPV, providing the opportunity to reduce system costs.

Demonstrating to industries the long-term benefits of choosing materials that have high post-use residual value is a challenge that must be overcome in order to create a circular economy. The report also identifies strategies for nearly doubling that figure to 17% by 2030 by identifying sectors with a high potential for change. Industries should also develop action plans for transitioning to sustainable energies and materials that can retain a high value in the post-consumer market.

Polyamide (i.e. nylon) is preferred plastic in many high end applications due to its crystalline structure and high melting temperature. The viscosity is in the lower end of the spectrum as shown in the figure 2 in high shear rate regimes. Nylon 66 has the highest melt temperature, i.e. 265 oC which would require a TPE with good, high temperature melt stability.
