The setup was completed by fixing the impact surface of
the hammer and applying a 1g (gravity force = 9 .8 m/s/s)
excitation in the X-direction, as shown in Figure 21 .

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income attributable to PolyOne common shareholders, adjusted earnings per share (EPS) attributable to PolyOne common
shareholders and operating income before special items to assess performance and allocate resources because senior management believes that these measures are useful in
understanding current profitability levels and that current levels may serve as a base for future performance.

Following are top reasons why many manufacturers and designers choose
high-performance thermoplastics:
• High-temperature resistance • Chemical resistance
• Flame/smoke/toxicity (FST) performance • Chemically inert
PLUS, ALL
THE BENEFITS
OF PLASTIC
In addition to their elite-level properties,
high-performance thermoplastics deliver
the typical advantages of polymers over
other material types such as metal, glass and
ceramic, including:
• Light weight
• Design freedom/part consolidation
• Easy colorability
• Efficient, high-volume processing
• Elimination of secondary operations
• Enhanced product experience
for the end user
- quieter environment
- improved tactile feel
- better usability
ADVANTAGES
Going Above
and Beyond
• Amorphous structure
• High marks for toughness, chemical resistance,
hydrolytic stability, resistance to boiling water,
and extreme thermal capabilities
• Best for: aerospace interiors, hot water fittings,
and medical and dental devices that are
subjected to repeated steam sterilization
• Also used in food equipment exposed to
temperature extremes, such as coffeemakers
or freezer-to-microwave cookware

• High marks for thermal stability, chemical
resistance and mechanical properties over
a wide temperature range
• Better-than-average levels of combustion
resistance and electrical performance
• Some PAEK materials, like polyetheretherketone
(PEEK), are also extremely tough and have
excellent impact strength
• Best for: aerospace, automotive, industrial
and medical components
• May be used to create stock shapes such as
rods, bars, and tubes

• Excellent temperature resistance with continuous
service temperatures up to 230°C
• High marks for modulus and resistance to creep,
corrosion, and chemicals
• Above-average electrical properties
• Best for: complex parts with extremely tight
tolerances; often used as an alternative to metals
and thermosets in automotive underhood parts,
appliances, electronics, and industrial applications

S • Semi-crystalline structure
• High degree of anisotropy: strength, stiffness
and thermal expansion will be greater in one
direction vs. the other
• High marks for temperature, chemical
and electrical resistance
• Exceptional mechanical strength
and high flow rates; often used to fill
extremely long parts with thin walls
• Best for: electronic connectors, sensors,
bullet-resistant vests, jet engine enclosures,
brake and transmission friction parts, and gaskets
• Amorphous structure
• High marks for thermal, mechanical,
and chemical properties
• Often selected for demanding applications requiring
ultra-high mechanical strength combined with high
temperature, corrosion and wear resistance
• Impact resistance may be lower than
that of PSUs and PAEKs
• Best for: aerospace interiors, automotive lighting,
medical devices, and electrical and fiber optic
connectors

TEMPERATURE AND MATERIAL TYPE
The two broad classifications of high-performance thermoplastics—amorphous and semi-crystalline—
have different temperature characteristics.
