 /PRNewswire/ -- Expanding on its global footprint and expertise in thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) innovation and design, 

This includes lower-carbon alternatives to thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) without sacrificing performance, portfolio expansions including bio-renewable feedstock and post-industrial or post-consumer recycled (PCR) content, and new materials and services focused on meeting specific customer needs while helping to advance a circular economy.

This material, also known as a thermoplastic elastomer, has a soft, grippy feel and is highly colorable.

Trilliant™ HC Healthcare Thermoplastics feature excellent chemical resistance for applications found in biopharmaceutical processing, hospital settings, and home healthcare applications.

The students were tasked with designing an automotive aftermarket part that prominently incorporates Avient's long fiber thermoplastic (LFT) materials for a sustainable lightweighting solution.

Most fluoropolymers, other than PTFE and polyvinyl fluoride (PVF), can be melt processed using conventional thermoplastic extrusion or molding techniques.
