WALL PARTITION MANUFACTURER F O O D P R O C E S S I N G E N V I R O N M E N T S • Decrease growth of microbes on plastic surfaces that come in contact with food products • Compatibility with sheet extrusion processing • Maintain all other functional attributes inherent to product, such as ROHS, flame retardant standards, and specific brand color • Seamlessly incorporated multifunctional additives for optimal performance in reducing microbe growth • Developed custom formulation for complex processing configurations in sheet extrusion technology • Provided expertise in antimicrobial performance, chemical resistance, flame retardance, and regulatory product stewardship Cesa™ WithStand™ Antimicrobial Additives and Smartbatch™ Combination Colorants and Additives KEY REQUIREMENTS WHY AVIENT?

SATELLITE OEM B R A I D E D T E T H E R • Needs a small diameter strength member with specific tensile and geometric requirements that current product was not achieving • Requires a solution that is also black and UV resistant, as existing aramid yarns are not available in color (coating is not acceptable for the application due to off-gassing complications) • Withstands extreme, prolonged thermal cycling • Acts as a critical component for safe re-entry into earth’s atmosphere at the end of the satellite’s life cycle

AUTO DATA CABLE MANUFACTURER C O A X I A L S I G N A L C A B L E J A C K E T • Provide good chemical resistance like that of machine oil • Pass 3,000 hours aging test of finish goods • Have low dielectric property - characteristic impedance of transmission line: 100Ω, capacitance in water: around 102.8pf/m • Provided excellent performance with low dielectric constant to make the jacket layer of signal cables have low capacitance loss • Offered a solution by combining physical and chemical foaming products in the foaming layer to reduce the dielectric constant further • Maintained exceptional mechanical properties under high temperatures Maxxam Polyolefin Formulations KEY REQUIREMENTS WHY AVIENT?

In general, TPEs are recommended when you need a material that can be: • easily manufactured • bonded to rigid polymers • molded into a unique design • colored • produced to a specific hardness, toughness or surface feel requirement • recyclable • chemical resistant or fire retardant • noise and vibration dampening One of the first things to consider is the necessary hardness for your application. Additionally, thermoset materials can have more chemical and oil resistance, so they may be more suitable than TPEs for applications such as a part under the hood of a car. https://www.avient.com/products/thermoplastic-elastomers/resound-om-thermoplastic-elastomers https://www.avient.com/avient-launches-resound-r-recycled-content-portfolios-north-america-and-asia https://www.avient.com/industries/transportation/trucking/trucking-structural-components https://www.avient.com/lighter-weight-easier-processing-heat-resistance-polyone%E2%80%99s-crosslinkable-barricade-elastomers-have-it-all What are medical grade TPEs?
