    摘要: This invention relates to a synergistic combination of molybdate salts (e.g., calcium molybdate) and magnesium hydroxide to suppress both smoke and flame in polymeric compositions, such as plastic piping, profile applications, wire and cable, semiconductor and electrical conduit application, to name a few. In some embodiments, the technology relates to polyvinyl chloride (“PVC”) and chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (“CPVC”) compounds, among other polymer resin containing compounds, having improved smoke and flame performance from the synergistic combination of molybdate salts and magnesium hydroxide.

    摘要: The disclosed technology provides thermoplastic polyurethane compositions having non-leaching antimicrobial properties while still maintaining good physical properties, methods of making the same, and articles, including medical devices, made from such compositions. The disclosed technology includes a process of making an antimicrobial polymer composition, where the process includes mixing an antimicrobial additive into a polymeric material; wherein said polymeric material comprises a polymeric backbone made up of urethane linkages derived from a polyisocyanate and a polyol; and wherein said mixing occurs under conditions that result in the breaking of a minority of said urethane bonds resulting in reactive isocyanate groups; and wherein two or more of said reactive isocyanate groups react with said antimicrobial additive to covalently bond said antimicrobial additive into the polymeric backbone of said polymeric material; resulting in an antimicrobial polymer composition.
