Challe
nge Accepted.
Testing showed that this TPE would not stick
to the machinery or itself.
THE IMPACT
Avient’s formulation expertise produced a specialty
TPE solution that surpassed not only silicone but also
competitive TPEs to solve the gasket adhesion problem
for this medical manufacturer.

GLS™ TPE
MAJOR HOME APPLIANCE SOLUTIONS
ENHANCE APPLIANCE PERFORMANCE
WITH TPEs FOR ANTI-VIBRATION FEET
In the highly competitive home appliance market,
brands are driving to differentiate products with
enhanced performance attributes.
GLS TPEs are
designed to help you stand out from your competitors
with reduced appliance movement and noise.
Anti-vibration feet made with our TPEs have resistance
to wear and tear, better performance and function,
improved processability and reduced number of
part defects.

TPEs also allow for greater
design freedom, an extended product portfolio
and lower extractables.
TPEs can also be reprocessed and made into different products.
CONCLUSION: HOW CAN TPEs HELP YOU?

KEY REQUIREMENTS
WHY AVIENT?
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-09/sem-tpes-for-anti-vibration-feet-application-bulletin.pdf
Keep top load washing machines from walking –
Versaflex VDT TPEs use vibration damping
technology to prevent walking during use.
Dynaflex
G TPEs are able to reduce vibration due to their
inherent structure.
Withstand wear and tear – Avient TPEs can reduce
vibration, maintain their shape and resist tears over
time despite prolonged vibration.

Performance advantages:
• Non-conductive: formulations engineered
to optimize composite dielectric properties
• Lightweight: up to 80% lighter than porcelain,
reducing installation time and cost
• High strength: high tensile, compressive,
flexural and inter-laminar shear strength
to support various design configurations
and line loads
• Flexible: deflect and return to original shape
for load dampening to minimize damages
and outages
• Durable and shatter resistant vs. ceramic
and glass, and UV and corrosion resistant
for long service life
