display similar performance to an ethylene copolymer resin (ECR) – lower migration response than conventional plasticizers – favorable impact on conventional plasticizer material performance PHA modifiers are inherently miscible in PVC >> More easily processed and incorporated than synthetics PHAs are 100% bio-based and food-contact approved >> Increases bio-content, supports broad range of applications
