Recently developed Avient technology yields foam with smaller and more uniform cells so that processors can use 10-20% less plastic to create components that are visually identical to heavier, solid-walled parts. HYDROCEROL™ chemical foaming agents help to reduce the weight of automotive plastic parts like dashboard carriers, interior trim parts, door panels or glove boxes.

In addition to their use in standalone applications, TPEs can be overmolded onto a rigid plastic grip in an injection molding process to create a distinctive, cushioned feel without compromising the stiffness and strength of the underlying structure. When overmolded, GLS TPEs bond permanently and virtually seamlessly to many different plastic substrates, including polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), PC/ABS, copolyester, polyamide (nylon) and polystyrene (PS).

Design flexibility = fast customization: With plastic offering greater design freedom than metal, the company can quickly develop and produce variations of the part for different customers. Injection molding = cost savings: Compared with metal fabrication and its time-consuming secondary operations, injection-molded plastics are produced as a net-shape part in a single step, which boosts productivity and lowers system costs.

FRP pultrusions offer several advantages over traditional materials, like metals, ceramics, and unreinforced plastics. Pultruded composites offer a number of advantages over traditional metals and plastics.
