These CFAs are the result of Avient’s combined experiences in the development of chemical foaming agents for automotive plastic components and polymer solutions for healthcare applications. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Manufactured under ISO 13485 procedures • Documented change control beyond CAS number, reducing risk of change • Can be used on common injection molding and extrusion machines—set-up support by a technical assistance team • Available for use in polyolefins, styrenics and copolymers • Can be combined with colorants REGULATORY SUPPORT • Raw materials tested to: - ISO 10993-1 - USP and (incl. class VI) - European Pharmacopeia, monograph 3.1.3/ 3.1.5 (polyolefin packaging materials) - USP (polyethylene) - Elemental impurities as per ICH Q3D • Registered Drug Master File (Type III) and/or Device Master File • Food contact according to USA FDA and EU norms APPLICATION BULLETIN Sustainability Spotlight Healthcare use limitations apply—see below.

GlasArmor panels made with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites provide excellent ballistic stopping power for the MPS while meeting the requirement of being lightweight and portable. Avient collaborated with Edwards to develop ballistic- resistant panels that were not only compatible with the required hardware but also met color requirements for better visual cover once deployed.

The amorphous content of the polymer, which varies from polymer to polymer, provides the anchor for the interactions occurring at the interface between the rigid plastic substrate and the TPE. In addition, various rigid thermoplastics can have reinforcements and/or additives, such as fillers and fibers or color masterbatches, which not only can alter the resultant properties of the substrate, but also the surface chemistry. The chemistry variations of a few of these polymers are illustrated in Figure 4.

To assure that a gate will break at a specific location, the land length should be short to create a high stress concentration. Concentricity
