High-quality conductive pipette
tips must meet a number of demanding performance
criteria, including:
• Accurate measurement of minute quantities
of liquid
• Hydrophobic properties to minimize fluid retention
• Concentric dimensions and warp resistance
• Excellent chemical resistance
The manufacturer asked Avient for a specialized
solution to meet these exacting needs in a timely and
efficient manner so they could capitalize on its market
opportunity
THE SOLUTION
Avient’s sales and technical professionals worked
closely with the manufacturer to understand the
demanding requirements of the end-use application,
manufacturing considerations and cost.
