PRODUCTS APPLICATIONS DESCRIPTION/BENEFITS
EXCELITE PF-1 PVC sheet for digital print or trimboard;
Fine cell structure able to target low density:
improves consistency and control over
foaming process
FOAM ADDITIVE-54 PVC sheet for digital print or trimboard;
Finer cell structure than PF-1 promotes ultra
smooth surface finish; improves consistency
and control over foaming process
PF-1E & FA-54E
ADDITIVES
PVC sheet for digital print or trimboard;
Enhanced run time formulation reduces
die lip build-up in PVC processes, leading
to longer production run times
FOAM ADDITIVE-33 CaZN formulations for PVC sheet,
profile, or trimboard
Promotes finer cell structure,
higher cell density, and surface
quality in CaZN PVC dryblends
FOAM ADDITIVE-77 HDPE sheet & plastic lumber
Industry-leading cell structure and cell
density; achieves lower density without
sacrificing quality; self-nucleating and able
to increase extruder output rates up to 15%
FOAM ADDITIVE-85
Endothermic foam or
nucleating additive for olefin and
styrene polymers; plastic lumber,
sheet applications and
food packaging products
Can be used as a CFA or nucleating additive;
nucleating capabilities promote fine cell
structure and high cell density; achieves
greater density reductions with more
consistency and control
FOAM ADDITIVE-37 HDPE sheet & plastic lumber
Good cell structure and cell density
in HDPE lumber; greater consistency
and control over foaming process
EXCELITE CAN IMPROVE PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY
• The process operator has full control of density
• Minimizes product rejection due to unnecessarily high/low density
• Production should consistently target the bottom of the density specification
• Enables control over the reintroduction of regrind or reprocessed materials as a feedstock
• Enables the consistent foaming of products using higher percentages of regrind
• Carrier selection can promote longer run times, enabling increased line productivity through
less plate-out or material build-up on die lips
EXCELITE CAN IMPROVE SURFACE FINISH
Excelite additives creates a fine, consistent cell structure within the extruded polymer, which determine
the surface roughness.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/resources/Universal_Polyamide_Overmold_Thermoplastic_Elastomer.pdf
Polyamide (i.e. nylon) is preferred plastic in many high end applications due to
its crystalline structure and high melting temperature.
TPE chemistry and the type of engineering plastic play a critical role in influencing wettability.
We have modified ASTM D903 method for plastics to evaluate the adhesion of
soft TPE onto rigid thermoplastic.

• Our ability to identify and evaluate acquisition targets and consummate and integrate acquisitions
• Disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the
availability and cost of credit in the future;
• The effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks;
• Changes in polymer consumption growth rates and laws and regulations regarding the disposal of plastic in jurisdictions where we
conduct business;
• Changes in global industry capacity or in the rate at which anticipated changes in industry capacity come online;
• Fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply and in energy prices and supply; 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;

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
• Our ability to identify and evaluate acquisition targets and consummate and integrate acquisitions
• Disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the
availability and cost of credit in the future;
• The effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks;
• Changes in polymer consumption growth rates and laws and regulations regarding the disposal of plastic in jurisdictions where we
conduct business;
• Changes in global industry capacity or in the rate at which anticipated changes in industry capacity come online;
• Fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply and in energy prices and supply; 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;
• An inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services;
• Information systems failures and cyber attacks; and
• Other factors affecting our business beyond our control, including, without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in
interest rates and changes in the rate of inflation.
