jurisdictions where we conduct business, including with respect to plastics and climate change;
fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; demand
for our products and services; production outages or material costs associated with scheduled
or unscheduled maintenance programs; unanticipated developments that could occur with
respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters; our ability to pay regular
quarterly cash dividends and the amounts and timing of any future dividends; information
systems failures and cyberattacks; amounts for cash and non-cash charges related to

When showing constant dollar figures on GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, the foreign exchange impact is calculated by using current foreign exchange rates and applying them to the prior period results.
Unless otherwise stated, Adjusted EBITDA figures included in this presentation exclude the impact of special items as defined in our quarterly earnings releases.
We also monitor earnings (defined as net income from continuing operations) before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization (EBITDA) and adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA before the impact of special items) as a supplement to our GAAP
measures.

Polyoxymethylene (POM) is often the preferred solution for precision parts that demand high strength and stiffness, a low coefficient of friction (COF), and excellent dimensional stability.
However, this semi-crystalline-engineered thermoplastic has toxicity issues due to its residual formaldehyde content, a substance of very high concern (SVHC), according to the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA).

A look at processing and coloring these high-performance materials
The material was found to be very slippery, resistant to high heat, and chemically inert.
Fluoropolymers have high melting points and corresponding high processing temperatures and continuous use temperatures, depending on the specific product.
