1 Geon Vinyl Specialty Alloys & Composites Product Selection Guide

2 As North America s leading vinyl compound producer and worldwide leader in vinyl technology, PolyOne offers the most complete line of rigid compounds in the industry. When you look at vinyl s outstanding balance of properties, you ll see why our Geon Vinyl Specialty Alloys & Composites meet customer specifications and deliver proven performance and value. Geon HTX Higher-Heat Vinyl Alloys Geon HTX Higher-Heat Vinyl Alloys exhibit engineering-grade performance in a broad array of applications. Geon HTX Alloys extend the performance advantages of rigid vinyl compounds over an elevated temperature range, making them the cost-effective alternative to plastics such as FR ABS, modified PPO, polycarbonate, and PC/ABS blends. HTX Alloys find use in appliance housings and components, electrical enclosures, computer enclosures, telecommunications products, and network interface units. Fiberloc Vinyl Composites Fiberloc Vinyl Composites combine the inherent properties of vinyl with the strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability of glass. Fiberloc Vinyl Composites are significantly stronger, stiffer, and more resistant to thermal expansion/contraction than traditional vinyl compounds. They offer properties similar to metal but with advantages like lighter-weight parts, corrosion resistance, and the ability to consolidate parts. These composites have broad applications and are commonly used in pump housings, electrical enclosures, window and door accessories, and construction structures. Polytron Static-Dissipative Vinyl Alloys Polytron Vinyl Alloys are designed for applications requiring static dissipation. Unlike competing polymers which compound in antistat chemicals/conductive fillers or surface treat parts, Polytron Alloys incorporate a static-dissipative polymer which creates a long-lasting, homogeneous resistance to static buildup that will not rub or wash off and performs in low humidity and after regrinding. Of course, you get the traditional advantages of vinyl like fire resistance, colorability and color retention, and chemical resistance. Polytron Alloys are the ideal choice when static control is essential to a product s performance, such as in business equipment, electronics enclosures and packaging, and industrial process equipment.
