Four more companies have joined an industry task force that the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) has convened to improve the sustainability of a ubiquitous, $125 billion class of ‘forgotten’ polymers.

The Sustainable Polymers in Liquid Formulation (PLFs) Task Force seeks to provide leadership in creating a collaborative strategy to drive innovation throughout the value chain and across diverse sectors including cosmetics, water treatments, lubricants and agricultural products.

Dow, British utility providers Northumbrian Water and United Utilities, and global pharmacy chain Walgreens Boots Alliance have just joined existing members Afton Chemical, BASF, Croda, Crown Paints, Scott Bader and Unilever.
