Regulation

The Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE) recently hosted its annual event in Baltimore, bringing together over 150 professionals focused on the pressing issue of PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances).

Foaming biodegradable bioplastics offers a revolutionary approach to improving both material efficiency and environmental impact.

What are leachables in medical plastics? Why are they relevant and what is the issue? Diving into this topic impacts us all.

Plastics such as PTFE flood the medical industry daily. Examining PTFE’s past and present guides us towards its sustainable future.

PFAS regulation. Should they stay, or should they go? Legislative insights offer answers to common questions.

The release of injection-molded thermoplastic parts requires long-lasting and cost-intensive aging tests. A simulation-based approach to assess the aging of thermoplastic parts would constitute an essential asset for any company.

Recycling fluoropolymers is complex but essential for environmental resource efficiency and several industries that depend upon their properties.

Direct fluorination is a widely used surface treatment in the packaging industry to enhance barrier properties. However, it has recently been linked to PFAS contamination in HDPE and PP.

PFAS are everywhere. As laboratory characterization techniques evolve, governmental entities adjust.

Foam plastic insulation offers numerous benefits, making it an excellent choice for a variety of applications.
