Consumers respond to eye-catching designs and functionality, so as a designer or manufacturer, you strive to hit a cool-yet-high-tech vibe with your products. To integrate them, TPEs enable an overmolding process that places the material directly onto the housing substrate. TPE gasket materials can provide great compression set properties for a long lasting seal, even at elevated temperatures.

PolyOne Completes Sale of Designed Structures and Solutions... Innovator of materials solutions to help our customers succeed, while enabling a sustainable world.

Stop thinking one-for-one: Rather than looking for materials that can replace a metal part using the identical geometry, designers are now capitalizing on the additional freedom to form plastics into net shapes. Don’t wait too long to select materials: Engage with a polymer supplier early on in the design process to specify the exact material attributes you need. Take advantage of hybrid plastic/metal designs

CONTAINER DESIGN AND THICKNESS Some PET container designs and shapes include varying thicknesses. When additives are not specifically designed for use in PET, they can migrate from the polymer matrix and form tiny deposits.

The new patent-pending sensor, a finalist in the Body Interior category, is easier to assemble and weighs 38% less than the current metal design. The sensor’s design eliminates the need for a rubber O-ring, simplifying assembly and blocking duct leakage paths. PolyOne Corporation, with 2013 revenues of $3.8 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.
