THE SOLUTION Avient recommended Bergamid™ B70 G30H black TM-X PA 6 resin with 30 percent glass fiber reinforcement for its excellent mechanical properties and cost benefits.
Further, the material costs for Bergamid resin are lower than those of bent steel plate.
The new seat securement part has already been adopted by one OEM customer, and we are confident that other manufacturers will come to us for this lightweight, cost-efficient solution.”

It was important that the new connector provide signal dampening within an established range as specified by the customer without exceeding the established cost targets.
In addition, they are costly to manufacture, which makes them economically unfeasible for use in low-cost computers.
Avient’s willingness to invest the time and resources needed to ensure success enabled the manufacturer to develop a cost-effective, well-per forming product for its customer.

Microsoft PowerPoint - Recast Financial Information for Pension Standard v13 2013 to 2017 Recast GAAP Financial Information for the Adoption of ASU 2017-07: Presentation of Net Periodic Pension and Postretirement Benefit Cost April 26, 2018 POLYONE CORPORATION 2 Reflects quarterly GAAP financial adjustments for the adoption of ASU 2017-07.
The new accounting standard is effective January 1, 2018 and requires all components of annual periodic pension and postretirement costs, other than service costs, to be presented below Operating Income.
Accordingly, mark to market adjustments, interest cost and expected return on plan asset components are now included in Other Income (Expense).

DENSITY-MODIFIED POLYMER REPLACES BRASS, ACHIEVING PERFORMANCE, ENVIRONMENTAL AND COST BENEFITS © 2021, All Rights Reserved Avient Corporation, 33587 Walker Road, Avon Lake, Ohio USA 44012 To learn more about Gravi-Tech™ density- modified formulations, contact Avient at +1.844.4AVIENT (1.844.428.4368) or visit us at avient.com.
However, we didn’t want to make the material any denser than absolutely necessary, as more fillers mean higher costs.
THE IMPACT Gravi-Tech high-density formulations enabled API to design and mold a patented, full-opening flapper valve that is not only unique in the market, but also offers important cost, performance and environmental advantages over brass.. • System cost reduction = competitive advantage: The PolyChek valve featuring Gravi-Tech materials offer customers faster installation, less maintenance and longer life. • Design freedom = unique product offering: The ability to injection mold Gravi-Tech materials instead of machining brass enabled API to design a cost-effective, full-opening flapper valve that is 100% pigable. • High performance = customer satisfaction: The PolyChek valve gives API’s customers the ability to create all-plastic piping systems that eliminate leakage and weak spots. • Elimination of lead = increased safety and compliance: Replacing brass with Gravi-Tech high-density formulations eliminates health and safety concerns about lead. • Use of existing tooling = lower capital costs: API was able to use the same mold originally designed for nylon to run the Gravi-Tech materials, saving the substantial costs of retooling.

Avient helped the customer calculate costs for the 12-month period.
Projections showed the cost of a new tool would be recouped within months, enabling the manufacturer to move forward with confidence.
Even more important, the Avient solution solved critical manufacturing issues that were affecting productivity, quality and cost.

Long Fiber Thermoplastics (LFT) for Brackets and Latches Unlock opportunities for cost savings, lightweighting, & production efficiencies Brackets and latches are traditionally made of cast aluminum or stamped steel.
However, metals also have known limitations that impact cost, processing, and design.
Long fiber thermoplastics (LFT) combine the structural integrity of metals with the lighter weight and cost-effectiveness of thermoplastic composites.
