• Company Longevity: As PolyOne, since 9/1/2000.
Given the nature of our operations there is
generally very little opportunity for true in-
process testing.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/resources/PolyOne%25202015%2520Annual%2520Report.pdf
Because of the nature of our business, we do not believe that our
backlog is a meaningful indicator of the level of our present or future business.
Natural gas and raw materials costs represent a substantial part of our
manufacturing costs.

Maxxam™ BIO Bio-Based Polyolefin Formulations
Maxxam™ BIO polyolefins are formulated with
bio-based polyolefin resin and/or 10–50% natural
filler from renewable plant sources, including olive
seed based powder and cellulose fiber.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
Formulated with bio-based resin and/or
10–50% filler from renewable plant sources,
Maxxam BIO formulations:
• Reduce product carbon footprint
• Achieve equivalent performance to standard
polyolefin formulations
• Provide good stiffness, durability, impact
resistance and UV stability
• Deliver good surface finish and are easy to color
• Enable customized performance characteristics
depending on application need
• Offer food contact compliance
MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS
Maxxam BIO formulations are suitable for use across
many industries and applications where traditional
polyolefin materials are used, including:
• Transportation Interior Applications -
Decorative profiles, trunk side liners, pillars,
T-cup
• Industrial - Structural parts, furniture
• Consumer - Household goods, personal care
items, packaging, office supplies, food contact
applications
• Electrical and Electronic – Housings, buttons,
junction boxes
SUSTAINABILITY BENEFITS
• Formulated with bio-based resin and/or
10–50% natural filler
• Utilize natural filler from renewable plant
sources including olive seed based powder
and cellulose fiber
• Offer a lower product carbon footprint
compared to traditional petroleum-based
feedstock
• Can be recycled at end of life

Carbon fiber increases modulus more than glass or natural fibers and a composite with 50% fiber will be stiffer than one containing 30%.
The viscoelastic nature of thermoplastic materials also aids in the absorption of energy instead of reflecting or transmitting it as vibrational or sound waves.
Plastic radiolucent photoarticles are transparent to short wavelength radiation and appear nearly invisible on x-rays or during fluoroscopy procedures.

Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure PolyOne's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.
