The launch includes new grades in Europe that contain over 80 percent recycled content, as well as versions in North America and Asia that are compatible with PC, ABS, and PC/ABS overmolding.
In North America, Avient is launching an additional reSound™ R recycled content TPE grade for PC, ABS, and PC/ABS overmolding.
In Asia, an expanded reSound R range now includes three PIR grades for PC, ABS, and PC/ABS overmolding and seven PCR grades for overmolding on to PP.

In this study, a variety of plastic substrates (30 unique polymer compounds), including poly(acrylonitrile-co-butadiene-co-styrene), poly(butylene terephthalate), poly(etherimide), various thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), poly(carbonates), and poly(amides), were screened for susceptibility to microbial attack using American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) G21 (fungi susceptibility), Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) Z2801, and modified ASTM E1428-15a (bacterial suscep- tibility) test standards.
Control samples (top row) are shown for comparison to samples post-incubation and washing (bottom row) TABLE 1 Summary of ASTM G21 results for initial susceptibility screening of untreated resins/compounds Fungal growth Resin/compound 4 = Heavy growth (61%– 100% coverage, fail) TPE, 6 formulations 3 = Moderate growth (31%–60% coverage, fail) Poly(urethane), 2 formulations 2 = Light growth (11%– 30% coverage, fail) Nylon-6,10, PBT, poly(amide) elastomer, ABS, 3 formulations, reinforced Nylon, 2 formulations 1 = Trace growth (

Natural ABS formulation enables improved color consistency, operational efficiency
Working together, the team developed a natural ABS formulation with an additive package that provided consistent color along with heat-stabilizing properties.
The immediate result of the new ABS material was elimination of the automaker’s color consistency issues.

Row 1 (7.53.1.1) Target reference number Select from: ☑ Abs 1 (7.53.1.2) Is this a science-based target?
Yes, achieving this target will support Avient's achievement of Abs 3. (7.54.2.16) Is this target part of an overarching initiative?
Avient also established the cost of carbon at 56.76 per ton CO2 to encourage investments in low-carbon and carbon-free technologies.
