Then, the team researched the best combination of
additive and carrier resin for the application.
As an added
benefit, Avient designed a universal carrier that enabled
the manufacturer to use the same additives across a
variety of olefins, elastomers, and other resins.
Coupled with their ability to be used across
a variety of different resins, these antimicrobial
additives provide significant value.

For the materials tested, a variety of flame-retardant (FR) polycarbonate (PC) alloys, including blends with
acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT),
were benchmarked against FR copolyester and the chemically resistant (CR) aliphatic polyketone (PK) blends
of the Trilliant HC8900 and Edgetek ET8900 series.

SELECTION GUIDE
reSound™ REC Recycled Content Thermoplastic Elastomers
Post-industrial and post-consumer recycled TPEs
To help brands reach their sustainability goals,
reSound™ REC post-industrial recycled (PIR) and post-
consumer recycled (PCR) TPE formulations utilize
9–83% recycled content. reSound REC TPEs can be
overmolded onto polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate
(PC), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and PC/ABS
blends, and are suitable for injection molding.

The liquid is then extruded through bushings and are coated (sized) to help bundle the filaments and prepare the fibers for composite resin interface.

This process allows the coating resin to penetrate the fiber bundle before the yarns are braided, allowing for improved impregnation and a higher level of pickup, ultimately extending the life of the braid and reducing required maintenance.
