KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Fabric FX can be formulated to include properties such as UV color protection and anti-scratch performance • Fabric FX can be processed on standard molding machinery • Different matrix materials can be enhanced with Fabric FX, including ABS, PC/ABS, PB, and unfilled or talc-filled PP • There is no limitation on the graining that can be used; the fabric effect will differ depending on the grain effect engraved in the tool • If parts are extruded or a mold is not engraved, final parts will have an attractive speckled appearance, but will not be textured TYPICAL USES Fabric FX concentrates are suitable for any application that could benefit from an enhanced textile-like appearance.

When closurelogic turned to Avient for material selection help, the team developed a GLS™ TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) based on a stable, low migration TPE with a lower processing temperature compared to competitive TPEs, thus resulting in even fewer volatiles. Lined with TPE, closurelogic caps have outstanding tightness for sealability of both one-way and refillable bottles, while maintaining good removal torque. 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.

Versaflex™ TF Adhesive Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs) for Textile Fabrics As consumers are becoming more health- conscious, there’s a steady increase in the demand for functional, lightweight, and comfortable fitness clothing that is also visually appealing. Compared to TPU adhesive films and traditional glue, these new TPE solutions can deliver a seamless and strong adhesion to polyester and nylon fabrics, enabiling a uniform thickness and overall appearance for an athletic, close-fitting, and non-bruising finish. Versaflex TF Adhesive TPEs offer easy processing and shaping, and can also be custom-colored and cost-efficiently laser-cut.

reSound™ REC Recycled Content TPEs – AF 7210 Series Recycled TPEs for Automotive Interiors Sustainability continues to be a key driver in the automotive industry. They provide comparable performance to virgin TPEs, with good UV stability and meet vehicle interior air quality (VIAQ) standards for odor and fogging. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Contains 51–59% recycled content, with a minimum of 37% from PCR sources, including closed-loop feedstock • Provides comparable performance to virgin TPEs - Good UV stability - Meets VIAQ standards for odor and fogging • Supports compliance with the ELV Directive • Provides a more sustainable alternative to virgin TPE grades and supports a reduction in product carbon footprint (PCF) • Can be injection molded and overmolded onto PP KEY APPLICATIONS The reSound REC TPEs – AF 7210 series has been developed for use in automotive interior applications such as cup holder mats, phone charging mats, peddle covers, boot/trunk lining, HVAC flaps and other center console parts.

IMPROVE FINISH AND PERFORMANCE CHEMICALLY COMPATIBLE TPES FOR COSMETIC PACKAGING Functionality and differentiation are key when designing cosmetic packaging. Ability to add surface texture – Our injection molded TPEs are easily processed in commonly used, complex molds. Simpler production process – Overmolding Versaflex PKG TPEs is an effective method for simplifying a two-step process into a single step

Flat or round profiles, or cored braids for added strength

Avient produced the continuous composite-profile braces using pultrusion technology.
