PolyOne is seeking your help to find the best ideas for our GLS Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) vibration damping technology.
Our vibration damping technology can add value to products in ways your customers can really feel. This vibration damping technology can reduce the effects of impact and vibration, improving your customer's experience and increasing top line growth through sustainable differentiation.
These formulations have been used in a variety of applications. In sporting goods, such as helmets and shin guards, they help protect against forceful contact. In electronic devices they mitigate the shock of knocks and drops, in power tools they improve comfort by absorbing nuisance vibration, and in appliances they reduce noise by eliminating vibration from pumps and motors.
The contest is open to anyone in the United States.
