1. Amino-formaldehyde based resins are the best performing when considering cost and ease of use. 2. Colgate also uses oil-based resins in packaging for its products. 3. The usual ratio of masterbatch to the base resin is 1 to 5 percent. 4. Traditionally, solid-phase synthesis has relied on polystyrene-based resins for the synthesis of all kinds of peptides. 5. Target gift cards are made from corn-based resins . 6. Petroleum-based resins cost manufacturers anywhere between 80 cents a pound and $ 2.00 a pound, Zhao said. 7. Alternatively cobalt-based resins do not bind SlyD from E . coli and can be used for a single-step purification. 8. Petroleum-based resins cost manufacturers anywhere between 80 cents a pound and $ 2 . 00 a pound, Zhao said. 9. The base resin used in a complex formula, is an ethylene based polyolefin elastomer ( like polyethylene and EVA ). 10. They are especially sensitive to autoxidation which encourages cross linking of neighbouring chains and hence hardening of the base resin .
