Hydrocerol improved productivity up to 20% due to lower cycle times and processability on different injection molding units.
Using Hydrocerol with core-back molding technology, a process in which the mold is opened slightly to further reduce pressure and allow the foam core to expand, Avient helped the customer leverage density reduction to lower finished part weight.
Added during processing, Hydrocerol is heat activated and releases gas to form a cellular foam structure, keeping the outer skin solid without voids.

These various elastomers contain a propriety combina-
tion of base resins, processing aids, fillers, stabilization
packages, and other additives.
They represent
a wide variety of resins and/or resin mixtures, processing
aids, and stabilization packages used in current TPE tech-
nologies.
Products manufactured on different com-
pounding lines also have unique processing conditions,
including but not limited to variations in screw design,
residence time, and processing temperatures.

Coloring polymers in any process gives a degree of freedom and flexibility that’s not possible with pre-colored polymers.
This can lead to a less-than-optimum processing experience that also produces less-than-consistent results.
The specifics on sizing depend on the applications themselves as well as the size of processing machinery.
