The new color and additive concentrates and tailored ready-to-use formulations are made with bio-based polycarbonate, ABS, or styrenic polymers.
Using the new bio-based Mevopur polymer solutions instead of conventional materials,” says Volker Dickfeld, senior marketing manager, healthcare global, “can help manufacturers of pharmaceutical packaging, medical devices and related products reduce their carbon footprint.
Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint

All are semi-crystalline materials that contain an abundance of carbon and oxygen.
This is due to the low carbon footprint of the monomers, which is similar to that of traditional polyolefins.
However, it surpasses ABS, COPET and PC alloys.
