Hear from Meenali Parsekar, product manager for wire and cable materials at Avient to learn more about the manufacturing considerations for photovoltaic cable
Producing a material that achieves all these at a thin coating thickness is a challenge.
Avient’s Technical Services Team can assist with material testing and processing optimization.

Don’t wait too long to select materials: Engage with a polymer supplier early on in the design process to specify the exact material attributes you need.
Knowledgeable suppliers can also open your eyes to material possibilities you may not have considered, either with new formulations or additives and fillers.
How Avient can help: You can rely on the expertise we’ve gained in developing automotive material solutions for a wide range of electrical and lighting applications.

Some supply issues, such as the ones caused by the scarcity of substances and raw material shortages, are complex and difficult to overcome on short notice, especially in the healthcare area, due to high safety standards.
However, supply issues caused by available materials not reaching their destination due to geopolitical restrictions are easier to solve.
All four sites are ISO 13485 certified and use a harmonized raw material range as the base for globally available Mevopur standard portfolios and for custom formulations.

Choosing different materials can help reduce the carbon footprint of manufactured products.
And now these products can be made more sustainable by switching to polymers based on renewable materials instead of fossil fuel-based polymers.
Like all Mevopur products, Mevopur Healthcare Bio-based Polymer Solutions use raw materials pre-tested to ISO 10993-1, USP and , EP 3.1.3 / 3.1.5 (polyolefin packaging materials), USP (polyethylene) and ICH Q3D (elemental impurities).
