Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that include providing a tubing construction with at least one layer formed from a thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV). The tubing construction is suitable for use in pump applications subjected to cyclic loading and unloading. The tubing construction maintains a flowrate stability of +/?10% for an extended period of time to provide consistent fluid dispensing and/or dosing for an extended life of the tubing construction and/or the fluid pump.

Abstract: A flexible tube includes a polymer composition of a poly vinyl chloride having a molecular weight greater than about 1.0 inherent viscosity (IV) and a bio-based plasticizer. Further, a method of forming a flexible tube is provided. The method includes compounding a poly vinyl chloride having a molecular weight greater than about 1.0 inherent viscosity (IV) with a bio-based plasticizer to form a polymer composition and extruding the polymer composition into the flexible tube.

Abstract: A multilayer flexible tube includes an inner layer including a melt processable fluoropolymer, wherein the fluoropolymer includes a copolymer of a poly vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and a hexafluoropropylene (HFP); and an outer layer including a melt processable polymer having a shore hardness less than a shore hardness of the inner layer, wherein the multilayer flexible tube has a maximum storage modulus of at least 300 MegaPascal (MPa) at a temperature of about ?10° C.

Abstract: A tubular including a plurality of first-type layers; and a plurality of second-type layers each disposed between a pair of adjacent first-type layers, wherein the plurality of first-type layers includes at least two first-type layers, wherein the plurality of second-type layers includes at least two second-type layers, and wherein a Melt Flow Index, MFI1, of each of the plurality of first-type layers is different than a Melt Flow Index, MFI2, of each of the plurality of second-type layers, as measured at a same temperature. In an embodiment, at least one of the first-type layers and the second-type layers is adapted to provide a barrier against escape of gases, liquids, or a combination thereof from the tubular.
