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.

This bio alternative offers the same performance as its prime counterpart but with a lower carbon footprint. The portfolio delivers improved resistance to harsh chemicals and hospital-grade disinfectants over other flame-resistant (FR) polymers such as PC/ABS, PC/PET, and copolyester. This cutting-edge tool offers an important data point for the carbon footprint of Avient’s materials so customers can better understand the environmental impact of products, meet sustainability goals, and navigate the complex landscape of reducing carbon emissions.
