(API) of Gainesville, Texas, a
manufacturer of plastic pipe components, saw an opportunity
to design a flapper valve that could improve upon traditional
brass valves and enable non-corrosive, all-plastic piping
systems.
Don Houston of API said, “In addition to all these drawbacks,
brass valves have to be joined to plastic piping with steel
fittings.
We wanted to make it easier for our customers to
create durable piping systems by developing a plastic flapper
valve that could be easily fused onto polyethylene (PE) pipe.

One
angle is to offer chemical foaming agents that
help reduce plastic material use.
These CFAs are
the result of Avient’s combined experiences in
the development of chemical foaming agents
for automotive plastic components and polymer
solutions for healthcare applications.
They also improve the visual appearance of plastic
components by reducing sink marks.
