While most batteries are traditionally metal-based, there are significant advantages to using polymers (plastics) instead, especially with recent advancements in polymer science that make using these materials in electric vehicle batteries possible. Design and Processing Flexibility: The versatility of plastic opens up new avenues for battery design and integration within electric vehicles.

They completed the metal-to-plastics transition in less than four months – bringing production in-house while using the same tooling. In 2013, the Mars LED assembly was honored as a finalist in the annual Automotive Innovation Awards competition of the Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE).

The USP 661 regulation is in place to support safety of pharmaceutical packaging, and specifically plastic packaging. The revision process for the plastics packaging chapters of the USP-NF, including USP 661, has been underway for several years.

Take, for instance, using FEA for a metal-to-plastic conversion. FEA allows a nonlinear analysis in plastic part design that provides a more accurate representation and can help to eliminate potential field failures or what might be unanticipated part performance.

Avient supports the Plastics Europe and American Chemistry Council commitments to enable plastics packaging to be 100% re-used, recycled or recovered by 2040 It is estimated that 9% of the world’s plastic is recycled by end users.

Plastics are renowned for their durability, aesthetics, ease of handling and recyclability. The 2022 average injury incidence rate for our NAICS Code (326 Plastics and Rubber Products Manufacturing) was 3.40. In addition, we continue to engage and invest in the Alliance to End Plastic Waste (AEPW).
