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.

Avient PlastiComp Complēt™ & OnForce™ long fiber composite pellets are manufactured using a pultrusion process.
This fiber to polymer bond is key to obtaining optimum performance and having a true composite material.
Typically for injection molding processing 12 mm (0.5 inch) long pellets are the standard length to facilitate material handling and feeding into processing equipment.

Precautions: the extruder should not be idle with the material in the barrel,
bleed constantly when possible.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
