The manufacturer worked with Avient to formulate a custom Versaflex™ TPE that featured a low durometer with excellent resistance to adhesion (sticking).
But before making the decision to switch from silicone to the Versaflex material, the company needed to feel confident that it would recoup its capital, which included a $50,000 investment in new tooling, within 12 months.

Versaflex™ CF Low Adhesive Build-up TPE
for Protective Film Tack Layer
Protective films guard the surface of finished goods
from initial fabrication through assembly, shipment,
storage, and installation.
Versaflex™ CF 6668 low adhesion build-up TPE for
protective film meets that need.
Compared to current solvent-
based coating technology, co-extrusion film using
Versaflex CF has significantly reduced volatile
organic compound (VOC) emissions and helps
reduce energy consumption by eliminating
secondary coating and drying operations.
