Plastic materials offer opportunities and play an
increasingly vital role: colors aid identification and
automated laboratory processes while functional
additives expand the usable property window of
the polymer in areas such as surface chemistry
or oxygen protection.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
Please be aware that there are certain applications Avient’s Mevopur products have not been designed for, nor are they promoted or intended for use in: including, but not limited to long-term or permanent
implants, birth control devices, or plastic surgery.

Competition
The production of plastics and the manufacturing of custom and proprietary formulated color and additives systems
for the plastics industry are highly competitive.
Raw Materials
The primary raw materials used by our manufacturing operations are polyolefin and other thermoplastic resins, polyvinyl
chloride (PVC) resin, plasticizers, inorganic and organic pigments, all of which we believe are in adequate supply.
