Abstract: A method of making an article of manufacture is disclosed, wherein the article includes a polymer with recycle content. In one or more embodiments, the polymer with recycle content is selected from the group consisting of (i) a recycle content polyester; and (ii) a recycle content cellulose ester.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to thermoformed articles having one or more deep undercuts and to processes for making such articles. The undercuts produced using the process described herein exhibit superior properties compared to undercuts present in conventional articles. The thermoformed articles can be produced using a foamed polyester-containing material which facilitates the production of undercuts exhibiting superior properties.

Abstract: This invention relates to a polymer blend comprising: (A) about 1% by weight to about 99% by weight of at least one polymer (A) comprising terephthalic acid residues, 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-1,3-cyclobutanediol residues; and 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol residues; (B) about 1% by weight to about 99% by weight of at least one polymer (B) comprising 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid residues and 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol residues, and (C) about 0.01% by weight to about 20% by weight of at least one antimicrobial agent; said weight percentages being based on the total weight of the polymer blend.

Abstract: This invention relates to a blend comprising: (A) about 80% by weight to about 99.99% by weight of at least one polyester comprising terephthalic acid residues, 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-1,3-cyclobutanediol residues; and 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol residues; and (B) about 0.01% by weight to about 20% by weight of at least one antimicrobial agent; said weight percentages being based on the total weight of the blend.

Abstract: Copolyester ether elastomer compositions and methods for preparing copolyester ether elastomer compositions. Such compositions can comprise a copolyester ether, a thermoplastic elastomer, and a compatibilizer resin. Improved properties of such compositions can be useful in making various articles of manufacture, such as, for example, laboratory and medical application tubing.
