HOW GLS TPEs MAKE THE DIFFERENCE IN HOME APPLIANCE
ANTI-VIBRATION FEET
• Reduced appliance movement and noise –
vibration damping technology reduces
movement and noise of the appliance
when in use
• Resistance to wear and tear – TPEs are proven
to maintain their shape and resist tears with
low compression set
• Better performance and function – increase
design freedom with material selection
flexibility
• Improved processability – boost efficiency
with injection molding processing and reduce
overall production cycle time
and costs
• Reduced number of part defects – eliminate
secondary operations to achieve consistent
and controlled results

Injection and Compression Overmolding
HARNESS THE VERSATILITY
Are you working on a project that would benefit
from added reinforcement, reduced weight,
material reduction or part consolidation?
Our
application development, engineering and
industrial design teams can help you to:
• Increase stiffness
• Improve impact resistance
• Reduce weight through thin-walling and
material reduction or replacement
• Add strength in high stress areas
Avient’s thermoplastic composite innovation
cell in Englewood, CO features injection and
compression molding equipment as well as design
and testing services, all under one roof.
Through injection or compression
overmolding, composite tapes and multi-
ply laminates are integrated into traditional
thermoplastic molding processes to create
locally-reinforced, molded components.

HOW GLS TPEs MAKE THE DIFFERENCE IN AUTOMOTIVE HVAC APPLICATIONS
• Low VOC/FOG – externally tested to VDA 278
and shows significant reductions in volatile
organic compounds and fogging when
compared to current TPE technologies
• Industry standards – helps to achieve VOC/
FOG performance standards for improved VIAQ
• Reduced manufacturing steps – does not
require pre-drying or post heating to reduce
VOC in parts produced
• Design optimization – color can be added at
the machine
• Easy to process – can be extruded, injection
molded and extrusion blow molded
• Recyclable – Our automotive TPEs are
compatible with most municipal recycle
streams
• Global support – Avient automotive TPEs
can be manufactured in locations that are
convenient to your operations, including
North America, Europe or China
