Based on this relationship, the designers decided to meet with Avient to determine how a joint team could change the game when it came to mitigating recoil.

Army Corps Engineers’ Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) Survivability Engineering Branch enlisted the expertise of Edwards Design and Fabrication, an Alabama-based equipment fabricator for commercial and government research and development organizations.

KEY BENEFITS • EPBP bottle-to-bottle recyclability accredited • Non-nylon based product • Compatible with rPET (recommended for >up to 100% rPET content) • No scavenging delay or deactivation • Excellent bottle clarity • Fit to use in monolayer as well as multi-layer bottle structures * European Platform for Bottle Packaging 1 https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/ LSU/?

The cable manufacturer is responsible for conducting such trials to determine the ECCOH™ grade suitable for the application. 1 CPR class indications are based values for a sheathing thickness of 1mm. 2 For LV sheathing, CPR class indications are based on a cable design without bedding or flame retardant insulation.

Renol™ & Remafin™ Fiber Colorants Black & White STANDARD AND CUSTOM BLACK CONCENTRATES • High pigment concentrations for high tinting strength • Lower concentrations to meet specific customer needs • Tailored for special requirements, with specific physical/rheological properties STANDARD AND CUSTOM WHITE CONCENTRATES • TiO2 based with excellent opacifying or tinting strength • Optical white to improve the surface whiteness and/or brighteness of end articles • Regulatory compliance support Product characteristics • Optimal melt flow properties allow a good mixture with the polymer matrix yielding the best possible spinnability • Full pigment dispersion ensures maximum CPF/Spinning pack life • Carriers: PET, PBT, PA 6, PA 66, PP, and others Applications • Continuous filament spinning, including fine denier (POY, FDY, HOY, bi-component yarns) • Long and short spinning staple fiber • Spunbond SINGLE PIGMENT DISPERSIONS (SPDS) We have extensive experience in using advanced technologies and special raw materials, which make our SPDs suitable for more demanding applications. LIQUID FIBER PRODUCT FEATURES Fiber Solution Services LABORATORY PERFORMANCE BASED ON STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNOLOGY To ensure the highest quality products, our customers rely on high-performance raw materials which guarantee that the final products meet the required specifications for heat resistance, household washing, weathering and lightfastness.

RECYCLABILITY METHOD-1 • Preforms were produced by dosing 0.09% of Avient Fortis Amber-1 and 4% of our nylon- based oxygen scavenger Amosorb SolO2-2 • Preforms were ground down to a coarse granule size (~2mm) using a Retsch mill. • The coarse ground material was then crystallized in a vacuum oven at 160°C before drying the material at 160°C for approx. 4 hours within a PET drier • Plaques were then molded on a BOY XS and 10 of these were kept after each cycle, to take color measurements • This process was then repeated until 5 heat cycles had been completed RESULTS FOR RECYCLABILITY METHOD-1 As plaques were produced while the material went through five different melt heat histories, plaques were produced at each cycle and L*, a*, and b* values were measured. To do so the following procedure was carried out: • Preforms were produced by dosing 0.09% of Avient Fortis Amber-1 and 4% of our nylon- based oxygen scavenger Amosorb SolO2-2 • Preforms were ground down to a coarse granule size (~2mm) using a Retsch mill • The coarse ground preforms were crystallized in a vacuum oven at 160°C before drying the material in a PET drier at 160°C for approx. 4 hours • This material was then injection molded and blown into bottles with a) 50:50 dilution with Virgin PET with no color and b) 50:50 dilution with Virgin PET + Fortis Amber-1 at 0.045% Figure 2.
