• It is estimated that 9% of the world’s plastic is recycled by end users. As a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste, Avient will collaborate to develop and implement solutions to end plastic waste with approximately 50 members across the value chain. Update: • The Alliance to End Plastic Waste is currently executing 27 projects globally that are expected to divert at least 375kt of plastics waste per year. 2030 Sustainability Goals Last year Avient was proud to announce our 2030 Sustainability Goals and share our commitment to drive sustainability for all of our stakeholders.

SynPlicity™ 1000 cosmetic ester provides an excellent balance of performance and durability for nail polish formulations in a highly-efficient, non-phthalate and bio-based alternative to petroleum-derived plasticizers. SynPlicity™ 1000 cosmetic ester can help you achieve plasticizer usage levels and performance characteristics comparable to DBP, BBP and other high solvating plasticizers with a 94% bio-based, non-phthalate alternative. SynPlicity™ 1000 can also be used in combination with conventional plasticizers.

Antimony trioxide has the unique ability to make halogen-based plastic additives more effective in reducing the flammability of the finished plastics. ATO is only used as an industrial intermediate in manufacturing locations designed for the handling of plastics and chemicals. USES AND APPLICATIONS Antimony trioxide is predominantly used in plastics where resistance to ignition and flammability are required.

GLS soft TPEs can be overmolded onto rigid plastic, metal, or other substrates using a variety of techniques, including: Overmolded parts will take longer to cool because the TPE is only cooled from one side as the plastic substrate has poor thermal conductivity.

Medical Plastics Help Designers and Manufacturers Meet Changing Requirements Formulated with pre-tested raw materials, this range of additives helps enhance the performance and functionality of plastics used in medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging and mitigate the risk of non-compliance.

Plastic Waste Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the time required to consummate the acquisition of the Dyneema business; the satisfaction or waiver of conditions in the purchase agreement; completion of the consultation process with the relevant Dutch works council; the ability to obtain required regulatory or other third-party approvals and consents and otherwise consummate the proposed acquisition of the Dyneema business; our ability to achieve the strategic and other objectives relating to the proposed acquisition of the Dyneema business and possible sale of the distribution business; disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future; the effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks; the current and potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows; changes in polymer consumption growth rates and laws and regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct business; fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters; an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services; information systems failures and cyberattacks; and other factors affecting our business beyond our control, including without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates and changes in the rate of inflation.

The plastic mass is then shaped into filaments, spun, and texturized into an already-dyed yarn. Avient is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

In each comparison, polyketone thermoplastics offer product engineers and designers a new tool in the product development toolbox for engineering plastics. A noticeable difference here is impact properties, which are improved for nylons since water plasticizes nylon and makes them more impact resistant.
