PERFORMANCE A growing number of consumers are looking into the sustainability of appliances not only from the angle of energy consumption but also in terms of materials used to manufacture them.

A range of options are available in terms of FlexCart equipment, packaging and controllers, in order to suit different processing applications.

They use words such as “will,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial condition, performance and/or sales.

These properties, coupled with a wide array of base engineering thermoplastics, deliver the distinct benefits of LubriOne: • Reduced friction and heat buildup between interacting surfaces • Reduced noise and vibration among components in relative motion • Reduced weight and improved design freedom • Lower long–term maintenance costs when grease and other lubricants are eliminated Copyright © 2023, Avient Corporation.

Please be aware that there are certain applications Avient’s Mevopur products have not been designed for, nor are they promoted or intended for use in: including, but not limited to long-term or permanent implants, birth control devices, or plastic surgery.

La mise en œuvre de ces normes en termes de performance des fournisseurs est importante pour nous, et nous attendons de nos fournisseurs et partenaires commerciaux qu’ils communiquent ces attentes tout au long de leur chaîne d’approvisionnement en adoptant des systèmes de gestion, des politiques, des procédures et une formation efficaces pour respecter les normes et les attentes énoncées dans ce code de conduite des fournisseurs au sein de leurs opérations commerciales.

This renewed awareness for Received: 27 April 2021 Revised: 29 July 2021 Accepted: 21 September 2021 DOI: 10.1002/pen.25815 This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited To reduce the incidence of device-associated infections, antimicrobial technologies have been utilized in a variety of ways ranging from bulk-imbedded additives to sur- face grafting techniques.[13,14] In particular, silver-based additive technologies are frequently explored for healthcare applications due to their favorable toxicological profiles and broader regulatory approvals, while silver nanoparticles with controlled, long-term release profiles continue to be a very active and promising area of biomedi- cal research.[15-19] In textile segments such as sports active- wear, biocides are used to prevent the growth of odor- causing bacteria from perspiration.[20,21] Additionally, high-end recreational products such as boats utilize bio- cides to preserve the aesthetics of PVC products used for seat covers since bacterial growth may lead to pink staining caused by specific bacterial metabolites.[22,23] With respect to the mechanism of action, many antimicrobial products work by attacking enzymes common to a variety of microbes, interfering with membrane transport processes (e.g., importing environmental copper into the cells) as well as interfering with iron metabolism pathways.[24,25] Herein, an assortment of both rigid and flexible resins/ compounds will be evaluated for susceptibility to determine whether particular resin chemistries or compounds are inherently vulnerable to microbial growth and subsequent degradation or other deleterious effects. All in all, ZPT proved to be a highly effective addi- tive in protecting various TPEs from fungal and bacterial growth, and it is expected that this can extend the useful life of TPE products by preventing microbiological degra- dation and the development of staining, odors, and unsightly growth.[4,5,34] However, it should be noted that leaching of bulk-imbedded biocides from the polymer substrate is required to exert antimicrobial action, and the long-term effectiveness and release of ZPT from these compounds are currently unknown.[16,31,35-37] Future studies are required in order to determine the true dura- bility of the compounds when exposed to the specific envi- ronmental conditions of the end-use target applications (e.g., surfactant washes, humidity cycling, fluid contact, weathering).
