High levels of regrind are better tolerated in black materials. In addition, the material hardness is a factor. The softer materials exhibit some tacky behavior.

However, the customer needed a liner material that would be able to fill existing pipe interiors. The customer chose to use a Fiber-Line™ custom fiber formulation by Avient to produce a pipe liner. The resulting material was a seamless integration of over 1,000 meters of woven composite fabric reinforcement, providing a combination of flexibility and strength.

Avient’s chief operating decision maker uses these financial measures to monitor and evaluate the ongoing performance of Avient and each business segment and to allocate resources. Each of such adjustments has not yet occurred, are out of Avient’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Senior management believes the measures described above are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to Avient's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure Avient's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.

In contrast, short fiber reinforced thermoplastic materials contain reinforcing fibers of various short lengths (approximately 1mm in length on average) that are randomly orientated in the resin/pellet.   Since fiber in long fiber composites is continuous throughout the length of each cut pellet, long fiber materials have a higher fiber aspect ratio than short fiber filled plastics. Higher fiber aspect ratio provides the thermoplastic polymer with more ability to transfer energy to the stronger reinforcing fibers when the material comes under stress load and also to dissipate that energy over a wider area, therefore greatly improving impact performance.
