• Investments centered around innovation and
global sustainability megatrends
o Enabling a circular economy –
Technologies that allow for increased use of
post-consumer recycled (PCR) material and
improve recyclability of plastics
o Light-weighting – Composites and CAI
applications to reduce weight and material
requirements, which minimize energy and
carbon emissions
o Eco-Conscious – Health and human safety
applications as well as Avient’s alternative
materials to replace lead, PVC, halogens,
BPA and other less eco-friendly options

WHY AVIENT?
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2022-02/Sustainability ESG Disclosures_Antimony Trioxide.pdf
USES AND APPLICATIONS
Antimony trioxide is predominantly used in plastics where resistance to ignition and flammability are required.
Antimony trioxide functions as a synergist, reducing the amount of halogen-based product required to achieve
desired levels of flammability resistance performance.
