Our performance was supported by strong demand for our Dyneema® fiber technology used in personal protection applications and raw material deflation. We also expect raw material deflation to support margin expansion year over year, albeit to a lesser extent than in the first quarter." About Avient Avient Corporation (NYSE: AVNT) provides specialized and sustainable materials solutions that transform customer challenges into opportunities, bringing new products to life for a better world.

GLS271-051 is a novelty TPE material that overcomes such an inherent difficulty. Furthermore, the material has outstanding adhesion to Ultramid B3G6 (glass reinforced polyamide 6) as demonstrated in Figure 10 and 11. Summary: In order to effectively address a range of market needs and applications involving varied rigid substrates novel TPE materials have been developed at GLS.

To prepare for meetings, directors should review the materials that are sent to them in advance of those meetings. Board materials related to agenda items are provided to directors sufficiently in advance of Board meetings where necessary to allow the directors to prepare for discussion of the items at the meeting. 7 Executive Sessions Non-employee directors meet in executive session without management participation as needed. Director Orientation and Continuing Education The Board or the Company will establish an appropriate orientation program and will provide necessary background materials for newly elected directors.

PREPERM™ Solutions for Automotive Radars Millimeter frequencies put the performance of RF materials into a real test. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information. PREPERM materials are also used in these applications: • GNSS antennas • High dielectric constant lenses • V2X communication

The material was formulated specifically for sensitive applications such as still and mineral water. In addition, the material was engineered for good bonding and adhesion to aluminum closures. Brand owners are seeking more easily recycled materials, such as aluminum, and closurelogic’s use of TPE cap liners satisfy all three challenges—water quality, seal integrity and sustainability.

Versaflex™ TPE materials offer great compression set properties for gaskets that need a long lasting seal, and also create durable speaker skins with a silky feel. Today’s portable speaker manufacturers are searching for materials they can count on to protect against water and dust, but they also need durability and expanded design possibilities. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

This growth means new challenges for materials and technologies to ensure these state-of-the-art charging stations meet critical standards and performance specifications. Materials need to meet regulations (such as UL flammability compliance), be hygienic, and provide flexibility in design for options such as lightweighting or varied exterior finishes. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
