One Earth, eight billion people and counting – generations to come! SUSTAINABILITY! It benefits everyone and everyone has a role in it. Textiles, like water, food, and shelter, are a basic need of humanity. Sustainability in textiles is multifaceted and there are opportunities at every stage of the life cycle of textile materials. A comprehensive approach addressing all aspects of textiles from origin to manufacture to use and post life considerations are needed for maximum impact. How do we address such a challenge?

Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are among the most versatile classes of plastics known for their rubber-like characteristics. These thermoplastic compounds are commonly used for soft-touch applications because they can be easily formed and molded over more rigid substrates. TPEs offer significant advantages over rubber, including better processing, design flexibility, cost efficiencies and recyclability. But choosing the right TPE for your application requires thorough research and consideration.

TPE stands for thermoplastic elastomer. In broad terms, thermoplastic elastomers are polymer compounds that merge the economical processing of thermoplastics with properties of thermoset rubbers — the appearance, the feel and some of the mechanics. In other words, TPE materials act like thermoset rubber, but they can be melted or softened at high temperatures...

There are many effects that reflected light energy has on synthetic turf fiber, but heat generation is one of the main concerns. Americhem’s Research & Development Team has engineered pigments that contribute to lower heat buildup caused by sunlight. Combining this with other temperature reducing resin technologies allow for durable turf.

Americhem’s long term experience in Building & Construction has led to the success in making fencing and decking products look so realistic. By dialing back the gloss level of the masterbatch or compound and making the end product more matte, Americhem is able to achieve the ideal natural material look. But it’s not as easy as you think…

Color matching is the process of adjusting a known colorant formulation to match a standard without regard to the customer’s requirements other than the color matches the target.
