Graphene is a flat, single layer of carbon atoms in sheet form that is significantly stronger than steel.3 It has a high surface area-to-volume ratio, high tensile strength (how much it can stretch before it breaks), and high electron mobility (the speed at which its electrons move when voltage is applied).4 Graphene is not a new material, but it recently became commercially available and is now being used as a polymer additive.

Compounds at the high end of the resistivity scale shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio-frequency interference (RFI).1 Faster data transmission and broader electromagnetic frequencies are driving the need for better EMI/RFI protection for electronic devices.2

We also navigate the complex regulatory landscape, helping you meet the latest safety and compliance standards.  Avient's TPEs and engineered materials for auto-injector pens offer excellent chemical and impact resistance, good self-lubrication functions, durability to extend product life, and compliance with biocompatibility and food-contact safety regulations. 

Meet the requirements for safety, reliability, and multi-functionality for use in different disciplines ranging from microbiology, histology, and cytology to clinical chemistry.

With help from Avient, light weighting and thin-walling of structural components can help fleets achieve greater levels of efficiency without compromising safety or power.
