PRODUCT BULLETIN Syncure™ XLPE Cross-linkable Polyethylene Formulations DBDPE-free solutions for low voltage cable systems The Syncure™ XLPE 200 Series is comprised of engineered, moisture cross-linkable solutions formulated without decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE). With excellent temperature ratings and flame performance, these flame retardant polymers are used for insulation in low voltage cable systems, such as building wires, tray cables, and service entrance cables.

THE SOLUTION Avient worked with Elausa to develop a thermoplastic solution to suit their requirements and Therma-Tech™ Thermally Conductive Formulations were chosen as a potential fit. Switching materials from a metal to a polymer carries large and potentially costly risks in terms of both performance and production, so Avient Design was consulted to help alleviate these concerns.

BENEFITS • High additive loading for optimal UV stabilization • Solutions available for a large number of injection molded polymers including PP, PE, PS, HIPS, ABS, SAN, PA (nylon), PBT, Co-PET, PC, POM and TPU • Can be combined with colors and other additives in Smartbatch™ solutions • Formulations can be customized to meet specific regulatory compliance, e.g., EU and US food contact, toy, UL 94 recognition PRODUCT BULLETIN Copyright © 2023, Avient Corporation.

Cesa WithStand Antimicrobial Additives can be used across a wide range of polymer types. They provide a proven, effective and durable solution for countering microbe growth in finished plastic parts used in health and wellness applications. Cesa WithStand solutions include technical assistance to customize the additive dosage, as well as support with processes and specifications, helping to reduce time to market and saving time and cost in the development process.

THE SOLUTION This coordinated effort resulted in the innovative Modular Protective System (MPS) portable structure, which incorporates an Edwards-designed collapsible truss framework and Avient’s GlasArmor™ ballistic resistant composite panels. 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. With our hardware fabrication capabilities and Avient’s knowledge of composite ballistic protection technology, we were able to create modular systems that reduce time and logistic requirements for our brave soldiers.” 1 https://www.erdc.usace.army.mil/Missions/Military-Engineering/Deployable-Force-Protection-Demo/ To learn more about ballistic resistant solutions from Avient, visit avient.com or click to request a quote.

Compared to rubber and silicone alternatives they simplify manufacturing with single-step fabrication, reducing the energy used in production and can be overmolded directly onto non-polar polymer substrates such as polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE). KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Electrical resistivity range from 10–1010 Ω • Hardness range from 40–85 Shore A • Protects critical electrical components from EMI/RFI • Reduces static build-up • Simplifies manufacturing • Overmolds directly onto polymer substrates • Meets regulatory compliance requirements of ATEX and ESD • Food contact compliance grades are available MARKETS & APPLICATIONS Electrical applications that require a flexible material, and protection from EMI/RFI and static build-up. These include: • Industrial – Conveyor belts (food production and pharmaceutical industries) and controls (joy sticks, machinery handles and knobs, corrugated bellows, tool grips) • Electrical and electronic devices – Seals and gaskets, radars and sensors • ADAS components – Camera systems, navigation systems, vehicle control systems, infotainment systems PRODUCT OVERVIEW STAT-TECH SOLUTIONS KEY TECHNICAL PROPERTIES Material Description Base Resin Color Hardness Range Surface Resistivity (Ω) Key Characteristics ST0100-5003 ESD FD White VN8904 GP0F025721 TPU White 85 ShA 108 to 109 High elongation, static conductive, FDA compliance ST0100-5006 ESD X2 Natural TPU Natural 85 ShA 107 to 109 High elongation, static conductive ST0200-5001 ESD Natural X1 TPE Natural 40 ShD 107 to 109 High elongation, permanent anti-static, static conductive SST0200-5004 ESD Black TPE Black 40 ShA 103 to 105 Electrically conductive, static dissipative, lower hardness ST0200-5002 EC ES Black TPE Black 60 ShA 100 to 102 Electrically conductive, high elongation ST0200-5009 EC Black TPE Black 60 ShA 100 to 102 Electrically conductive, high elongation Property Unit Standard Test Methods ST0100-5003 ESD FD White VN8904 GP0F02571 ST0100- 5006 ESD X2 Natural 5001 ESD Natural X1 5004 ESD Black 5002 EC ES Black 5009 EC Black Base Resin TPU TPU TPE TPE TPE TPE Physical Properties Hardness Shore ISO 48-4 85A 85A 50D 40A 60 A 60A Density ISO 1183 1.19 1.15 1 1.01 0.965 1.21 Mechanical Properties Tensile Strength (Break) Mpa DIN 53404 10 15 15 4 5.7 2.5 Elongation, Break % DIN 53504 600 650 500 300 400 250 Electrical Properties Surface Resistivity Ω IEC 60093 108 to 109 107 to 109 107 to 109 103 to 105 100 to 102 100 to 102 Volume Resistivity Ω.cm IEC 60093 108 to 109 107 to 109 107 to 109 103 to 105 100 to 102 100 to 102 Color White Natural Natural Black Black Black Copyright © 2023, Avient Corporation.

Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) dowel bars offer advantages over traditional steel or epoxy- coated steel bars: • Electromagnetic transparency: ideal for high- speed toll roads to prevent interference • Corrosion resistance: the GFRP material will not rust or corrode in salt or alkaline environments • Light weight: less than one-third the weight of steel • Does not bond to concrete: eliminates the need for sleeves or grease to allow for expansion and contraction Glasforms™ composite dowel bars are tested and approved to meet the following requirements: • ASTM 1356 Glass Transition Temperature • ASTM D570 Water Absorption • ASTM 2344 Short Beam Strength • ASTM 7617 Transverse Shear Strength Glasforms™ Composite Dowel Bars for Concrete Pavement Construction APPLICATION OVERVIEW WHY GLASFORMS PULTRUDED COMPOSITES? Glasforms is one of the world’s most respected brands in pultruded fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) and advanced composites. Our manufacturing capabilities and collaborative solutions- based technical services have been trusted for decades to create specialized and purpose-engineered composite rods, tubes, and custom shapes.

Low Dissipation Factor (Df) Material – Our solutions use a base formulation that has a Df value of less than 0.002. Good Dimensional Stability – Our solutions are formulated to meet dimensional tolerances within +/- 0.2mm. Better Performance-to-Cost Ratios – Traditionally used materials can cost 30–40% more than a thermoplastic solution at only slightly better performance.

Over the last six years, sustainable solutions have been a substantial driver of growth for the Company.
