In the Subtotal section, you can enter values and select tax rates for shipping, handling, and
miscellaneous costs.
Applicable tax rates are determined by the tax code on the invoice.
The tax rate is a government
regulated rate to be paid to the tax authorities as part of the sale and it is shown as a percentage.

For ASTM G21-15, most polymer compounds
also exhibited marginal or no change in fungal growth
with the added texture, except for nylon-6; trace growth
(rating = 1) was observed on the smooth surface while
heavy growth (rating = 4) occurred on the textured sur-
face.
Overall, the most notable distinctions were observed
during ASTM G21-15 fungal resistance testing on smooth
plaque surfaces, which exhibited variable growth ratings
for the polymer substrates, as shown in Table 1.
Only polyamide-6 exhibited a nota-
ble change in fungal growth from trace (rating = 1) to
heavy (rating = 4) when comparing smooth and textured
surfaces, respectively.

The
manufacturer was struggling to find a replacement
material with excellent chemical resistance and a high
flame retardant rating.
The results showed the
Avient material outperformed typical FR PC/ABS and
had an added bonus: a UL yellow card V0 flammability
rating for all colors and some thicknesses.* Avient
also used its custom color matching capabilities to
provide pre-colored material that simplified molding,
while the material’s wide processing window helped
accommodate a variety of molding environments

Those depicted may not be an exact match for
your requirements, but when Avient color experts learn how a color will be used and what materials are involved,
they can suggest an appropriate pigment for your specific applications.
