Avient Boosts Aesthetics and Productivity for Consumer Electronics with New Non-Blooming Versaflex™ CE 3130 TPEs

Avient’s new Versaflex™ HC BIO TPE offers a sustainable alternative for biopharma tubing applications.      

CLEVELAND – PolyOne Corporation (NYSE:POL) has launched a new overmolding technology based on its Versaflex™ VDT thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), de

Examples of common applications include medical tubing, inflatables, packaging film and sheets, garden hoses, toys and automotive plastics.

Cesa™ Stat Antistatic Additives for automotive interiors Plastics can attract dust particles, creating an unattractive smudgy film on their surface.

They provide PVC with the flexibility required for various applications, including cables, film, flooring and roofing.
