Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income attributable to PolyOne common shareholders, adjusted earnings per share (EPS) attributable to PolyOne common
shareholders and operating income before special items to assess performance and allocate resources because senior management believes that these measures are useful in
understanding current profitability levels and that current levels may serve as a base for future performance.

CESA™ Block Additives
Antiblocking
PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE
Unmodified film and sheet can adhere, causing
problems of separation.
The modification of the
surface can be achieved without negative impact on
the optical properties of the film.
CESA Block can be
used in thin gauge film applications.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2022-06/CAI Animal Free Additives Product Bulletin.pdf
WHAT IT DOES
This range of additives offers food contact approved
solutions that address these changing market
requirements, to help improve existing film
properties such as slip, anti-block, anti-static
or no-fog.
Cesa™ No-fog Additives & OnCap™ Anti-fogging
Additives
Minimizing the negative effect of condensation on
the film surface is one of the key needs during the
food packing process and on the shelf.
Avient’s anti-blocking additives
were designed in order to have a very limited effect
on the optical properties of the film while providing
very efficient anti-blocking even at low dosing
levels.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2021-09/cai-biopolymers-brochure-2021.pdf
Constituents added to resins, such
as colorants and additives, must be adapted to
obtain a final article compliant with prescribed
standards such as EN13432 for Packaging
Applications and EN17033 for Agriculture Mulch
Films.
A dedicated selection of aid processes, all
following the requirements of Annex A of
EN13432, including slip agents, anti-block and
metal release additives, can help reduce issues
during the film extrusion and harmonize the
entire process.

APPLICATION PORTFOLIO DESCRIPTION
General use Opaque and transparent colors in PP, PE, COC, ABS,
POM, PC, TPU, PEEK, and more
Needle hubs and cannulae Opaque and translucent colors evaluated to ISO 6009
Ophthalmic caps and closures 13 standard colors in PE matched to American Academy of
Ophthalmology; biologically evaluated to USP standard
White pharmaceutical packaging White colorants for PE, HDPE, PP covering solid dose
to nasal packaging needs
Amber pharmaceutical packaging Pre-tested amber colorants
LSR silicones For LSR silicones and transparent color PET/PP (e.g. amber)
FUNCTIONALITY ADDITIVE PERFORMANCE
UV protection in transparent packaging Blocks UV in 290–450nm for PP, PE, PETG, COP
Processing aid/friction reduction Optimizes processing for PE, PP, ABS, POM—non-migrating
Nucleation for reduced material
consumption/cycle time
Improves thermal and mechanical properties of PE and PP
and allows wall thinning to support sustainability
Clarifying Improves clarity of transparent PP applications with reduced
migration and improved thermal stability—sorbitol-free
Laser marking/welding Activates the polymer to absorb Nd-YAG laser
for fast reliable marking/assembly
Gamma/e-beam sterilization Preserves the properties of PP and COP,
reduces yellowing and compensates for discoloration
Anti-static Reduces static buildup in applications such as films in
API handling and inhaler spacers/nebulizers
Antioxidant Provides thermal protection during converting/
downstream sterilization
Anti-counterfeit/brand protection Covert and non-covert systems
SUPPORTING SUSTAINABILITY
TARGETS
As the need to integrate sustainability in the design
of healthcare products is growing, manufacturers
of medical devices, diagnostic products and
pharmaceutical packaging are looking for
materials with a more environmentally friendly
profile.
