What are the USPs when compared directly to 1.4BDO?

See answer

POLYSORB® isosorbide and 1.4-BDO are structurally difficult to compare. Isosorbide is a rigid molecule, while BDO is flexible.

The main characteristic (USP) of POLYSORB® isosorbide are the increase of thermal stability (increase of Tg values) and the improved UV resistance (especially in comparison with aromatic systems). In parallel, it shows a positive performance on the mechanical properties and chemical resistance.
