Market Study: Silicones 3rd.
The results were impressive:
• Better tension set, improved compression and enhanced permeability
• Slashed $70,000 from production costs by reducing cycle times and
eliminating assembly steps
• Lower specific gravity of TPEs trimmed overall part weight, which cut
$36,000 in annual freight costs
• Reprocessability of TPEs shrank scrap rates, saving more than $70,000
in material waste

For a manufacturer seeking to redesign a liquid injection-molded silicone medical
pump valve insert, Avient suggested custom-formulated grades of Dynalloy™ OBC
and Versaflex™ TPEs that would deliver better multi-functional performance than
the previous design, while also facilitating easier two-shot molding.

HAIs constitute a
significant burden (approximately 28-45 billion
USD) to the U.S. healthcare system and affect
1.7 million patients annually.1,2 However, heavy
chemical exposure to devices and other equipment
that often contain various plastic components
poses an additional challenge—many of the
materials being used today are not designed to
withstand such routine cleaning or the wide variety
of disinfectants employed.
