Polymer Industry Overview
Polymers are a class of organic materials that are generally produced by converting natural gas or
crude oil derivatives into monomers, such as ethylene, propylene, vinyl chloride and styrene.
We cannot assure you that our internal
controls and procedures always will protect us from the reckless or criminal acts committed by our
POLYONE CORPORATION 11
employees or agents.
Natural gas and raw materials costs represent a substantial part of our
manufacturing energy costs.

In addition to use in their basic form, TPEs are widely used to modify the properties of rigid thermoplastics, usually improving impact strength.
An instantaneous reading will always give a higher (or harder) reading than the delayed readings.
Generally, exact shrinkage values cannot be known until a specific part is molded, so it is always best to be conservative and use a prototype mold if at all possible.
