Avient’s global cybersecurity program is designed to identify, protect, detect, respond to, and recover from threats.

Protective equipment like masks and sterile packaging help to prevent disease transmission, while critical devices like ventilators and CPAP machines work to save lives.

CLEVELAND – Innovative technologies from PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL), a premier global provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions, have enabled Citroën to launch groundbreaking Airbump® exterior protective panels on the new C4 Cactus passenger car.

Additives are often included in PET packaging to help protect contents and extend shelf life, but they can decrease packaging clarity.

The need for more aggressive disinfection to protect patients is here to stay,” said Michelle Hearn, global marketing director, Specialty Engineered Materials, PolyOne.

Its additive solutions help manufacturers speed their production lines, limit shrinkage, protect cable from weathering and flames, and maintain physical properties over the life of an application.

Lactra Four, One and Zero are the latest additions to the portfolio, delivering superior whiteness & contents protection with low inorganic content. WHY DAIRY PRODUCTS REQUIRE PROTECTION FROM LIGHT Certain components of dairy and dairy alternative products are susceptible to light-induced oxidation. Lactra extends the shelf life of PET packaged products, such as ultra-high temperature (UHT) milk, by providing protection from visible-light induced degradation under commercially relevant storage conditions.

Stat-Tech™ TPE Static Dissipative & Electrically Conductive Thermoplastic Elastomers Stat-Tech™ TPEs are electrically conductive thermoplastic elastomers engineered to protect critical electronics from electrostatic discharge (ESD), and electromagnetic and radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI). KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Electrical resistivity range from 10–1010 Ω • Hardness range from 40–85 Shore A • Protects critical electrical components from EMI/RFI • Reduces static build-up • Simplifies manufacturing • Overmolds directly onto polymer substrates • Meets regulatory compliance requirements of ATEX and ESD • Food contact compliance grades are available MARKETS & APPLICATIONS Electrical applications that require a flexible material, and protection from EMI/RFI and static build-up.
