In addition to simplifying processing, Versaflex PF formulations reduce volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions during manufacturing. BENEFITS OF VERSAFLEX PF FOR SURFACE PROTECTIVE FILMS: • Customizable tack • Single-step manufacturing process (co- extrusion) • Low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions during manufacturing • Eliminates secondary coating and drying operations • Eliminates hazardous liquid chemicals compared to solvent systems • Reduces converting costs versus coating • Reduces energy consumption MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS Versaflex PF formulations, customizable based on desired level of tack, are co-extruded with protective films to provide just the right amount of protection during the fabrication, assembly, shipment, storage and installation of finished goods in many industries and end-use applications including: • Optical films and display panels for consumer electronics • Home appliances • Construction and building materials • Furniture and cabinetry • Automotive and other transportation 100/0 90/10 80/20 70/30 60/40 40/60 30/70 20/80 10/90 0/100 0.9 1.1 2.0 2.4 2.8 3.7 3.8 4.9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 6.5 1.6 Versaflex PF MD6727 Versaflex PF MD6748 Versaflex PF MD6700 Versaflex PF MD6666 Versaflex PF 9512 Versaflex PF MD6649 Versaflex PF MD6741 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 % of MD6741/MD6700 Degree of tack can be customized for substrate surfaces.

Inorganic antimicrobials incorporate substances containing silver in ionic form, bound to inorganic compounds that regulate the diffusion of ions within the polymer mass.

Avient determined that the manufacturer required a material with a unique combination of properties, including: • Processing ease – high flow rate, ability to fill multi-cavity molds, thin-wall capabilities • Superior toughness – strength and durability to ensure dimensional integrity of the part • Repeatable performance – consistent conductivity for accurate measurement of liquids While several off-the-shelf compounds were evaluated, a new formulation was developed to meet the manufacturer’s specific needs as well as provide signifi cant benefi ts in reduced cycle time, increased production and reduced scrap rate.
