However, it should be noted that these resins still exhibited bacterial growth (>100 visible colonies) prior to the washing and did not reduce bacterial growth during JIS Z2801 testing (Figure S1). Among commercially available biocidal additives, ZPT and 2-butyl-1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one (BBIT) were considered for use to reduce the microbial susceptibility of TPE compounds. The loading of ZPT was reduced from 1500 to 1250, and 750 ppm, and a blue tint colorant masterbatch was added at two levels, 3% and 6% by weight of the final compound.

How does Avient help reduce carbon footprint? Reducing vehicle weight improves efficiency, extends range and enables increased payload. Our efforts are aimed at reducing the quantity of hazardous and non-hazardous waste generated.
