However, the combinations of materials that make up the composites themselves can be as varied as the end-uses. From engineered, man-made, or natural fiber reinforcements to thermoset or thermoplastic resins, there is a lot to consider when selecting a composite material.

Consumers, designers and architects are increasingly designing stylish outdoor living spaces and home exteriors that demand durability and require low maintenance,” said James Stephenson, director, global marketing, Geon Performance Materials. Capstock made from Geon Bold material is a cost effective alternative to painting, capping or laminating with materials such as fluoropolymers. PolyOne Corporation, with 2014 revenues of $3.8 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.

As such, there’s a trend to reduce microbial populations on high-touch surfaces via the use of antimicrobials to protect material aesthetics and durability or to prevent the spread of pathogenic microorganisms. To better evaluate how to protect plastic parts from microbial attack, Avient conducted a study to screen a variety of plastic substrates for susceptibility using American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) G21 (fungi susceptibility), Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) Z2801, and modified ASTM E1428-15a (bacterial susceptibility) test standards.
