Bio-polymers are already used with success in different plastic products, notably in packaging, but to be used in healthcare applications, they need to be evaluated to the relevant protocols to support regulatory compliance of the end article. Avient provides pre-tested color and additive concentrates based on bio-polymers to minimize the risk of non-compliance and support a more sustainable profile for plastic products used in the healthcare industry. Please be aware that there are certain applications Avient’s Mevopur products have not been designed for, nor are they promoted or intended for use in: including, but not limited to long-term or permanent implants, birth control devices, or plastic surgery.

TPE chemistry and the type of engineering plastic play a critical role in influencing wettability. We have modified ASTM D903 method for plastics to evaluate the adhesion of soft TPE onto rigid thermoplastic. Many consumers prefer a “warm” soft touch feel over a hard plastic feel.

In fact, you may have found yourself swimming in plastics alphabet soup and unsure where to start. Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are a type of plastic that have been refined to create a soft, rubbery feel—and they’re everywhere. Most thermoplastic elastomer products are also recyclable under Plastic Recycling Code 7.

Accounting for 25% or more of observed failures in the field, it is believed that ESC is the leading cause of plastic component failure.3 To better understand the environmental contribution of stress cracking, it is helpful to examine stress cracking in air (creep). The materials were evaluated for environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR) using an adaptation to ASTM D543 “Standard Practices for Evaluating the Resistance of Plastics to Chemical Reagents.”Plastics Engineering 2015, 71 (10), 30–36.
