Bio-based raw materials typically have more color options than recycled raw materials, as the feedstock can be slightly more consistent.
2) Material Performance
The performance of parts can be heavily dependent on the material choice, application, or industry.
Bio-based raw materials can have more color choices than recycled raw materials because their feedstock is typically more consistent.

A weak, less elastomeric material will creep more than a higher strength, more resilient material.
Flexural modulus measures the materials’ resistance to bending, and hardness measures the materials’ resistance to penetration.
Generally, higher hardness materials have better abrasion resistance.

PC is a popular material for everything from automotive interiors and appliances to consumer goods and electronics, thanks to its versatile characteristics and recyclability.
It can and often does replace more traditional construction materials, such as glass and acrylic, in applications where transparency and clarity are important.
Examples include:
• Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic
• Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation
• Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses
