Abstract
Thermoplastic compositions comprise non-fluorinated hydrophobic additive comprising fatty acid ester, hydrolysis stabilizer comprising at least one of polycarbodiimides and polyester-modified siloxanes, and thermoplastic polymer. The combination of the non-fluorinated hydrophobic additive and the hydrolysis stabilizer results in thermoplastic compositions having improved hydrophobicity and/or enhanced durability of hydrophobicity while also being free of fluorine and fluorinated substances.
