USP tests are designed to provide information on biological effects of polymer materials used in containers.
Typical applications covered by UL specifications include hand-held electronics, business machines and appliances.
Softening/melt temperatures vary with polymer type and grade.

Silcosperse™ TC Thermally Conductive Dispersions provide silicone materials with enhanced thermal conductivity by dispersing spherical iron particles into silicone gum or liquid.
They can be effectively used in applications requiring thermal management, such as LED-lighting, electronics, and automotive, or used for magnetic sealing in appliances, security devices, and more.
Heat transfer capabilities of metal with design freedom and weight reduction of engineered polymers.

Gravi-Tech™ REC Recycled Formulations: These density-modified engineered polymer materials include up to 98% recycled content, offering a more sustainable alternative than density-modified grades based on prime or virgin polymers.
Visitors can also experience live sample printing from Avient’s 3D printer, which will incorporate polymers from the company’s sustainable solutions portfolio.
With increasing demand from our
customers to incorporate more recycled content in their materials, we are pleased to showcase these innovative materials that offer higher recycled content and comparable performance to virgin materials.”

Important to note, semi-crystalline polymers feature crystalline regions
dispersed within amorphous material.
Food contact: Need for food contact compliant materials in household appliances.
The metal used for FFF dies depends on the polymer:
unfilled materials can use softer brass dies, while fiber-reinforced materials
need harder steel to prevent premature wear.
