Rubber and Plastics Manufacturers industry average. Plastics Recyclers Europe (PRE) Plastics Recyclers Europe (PRE) is an organization representing the voice of the European plastics recyclers who reprocess plastic waste into high-quality material destined for the production of new articles. UK Plastic Pact In January of 2019, Avient joined The UK Plastics Pact, a collaborative initiative committed to tackling plastic pollution.

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: 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, including recessionary conditions; 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; our ability to pay regular quarterly cash dividends and the amounts and timing of any future dividends; information systems failures and cyberattacks; amounts for cash and non-cash charges related to restructuring plans that may differ from original estimates, including because of timing changes associated with the underlying actions; the ability to obtain required regulatory approvals and otherwise consummate the proposed sale of the Distribution business; and other factors affecting our business beyond our control, including without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates, changes in the rate of inflation and any recessionary conditions.

Accounting for 25% or more of observed failures in the field, it is believed that ESC is the leading cause of plastic component failure.3 To better understand the environmental contribution of stress cracking, it is helpful to examine stress cracking in air (creep). The materials were evaluated for environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR) using an adaptation to ASTM D543 “Standard Practices for Evaluating the Resistance of Plastics to Chemical Reagents.” Plastics Engineering 2015, 71 (10), 30–36.

Avient joined the Alliance to End Plastic Waste as a founding member and is collaborating with over 65 member companies to promote infrastructure, education and engagement, innovation, and clean up effrots to keep plastic waste in the right place We are a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste (AEPW). AEPW's mission is to develop, accelerate, and deploy solutions, catalyze public and private investment, and engage communities to help end plastic waste in the environment.

PLASTIC PALLET MANUFACTURER N . A M E R I C A & A S I A • Eliminate voids in plastic that create quality issues • Reduce high scrap rates due to sink marks • Improve low strength-to-weight ratio due to voids • Reduce long cycle times • Run more fractional melt / low melt flow resins • Improved cell structure and physical properties • Removed sink marks to reduce scrap rates • Improved gas retention when used with N2 physical foam • Reduced short shots for lower scrap rates • Improved melt flow and created a more controllable foaming process • Provided greater ability to process low melt flow resins Excelite™ IM Chemical Foaming Additives KEY REQUIREMENTS* WHY AVIENT?

Page 1 / 1 has been assessed and certified as meeting the requirements of ISO 9001:2015 For the following activities The Design and Manufacturing of Plastic Color Concentrated, Plastic Additive Concentrated and Pigment Powder for Thermoplastic & Rubber Industries.

Storage and Handling of Vinyl Plastisols A vinyl plastisol is a liquid dispersion of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resins, plasticizers, and miscellaneous additives. When baked, this liquid plastic becomes a fused solid plastic.

In plastics, paints, and inks carbon black is used as a color pigment. USES AND APPLICATIONS Colored printing inks, non-impact printing, coatings, paints and lacquers, plastics, spinning fibers, specials applications; pigment, conductivity, reaction media, UV-filters. Carbon Black is by far the most important black pigment, and is the second most used in terms of volume of all pigments employed by the plastic industry, ranking behind only TiO2.

GLS™ TPEs with Antimicrobial Technologies This specialty line of GLS™ thermoplastic elastomers has imbedded antimicrobial additives that inhibit bacterial growth by 99.9% or more (log 3) and resist fungal growth to protect molded plastic parts. Developed for the preservation of high-touch surfaces and applications, these formulations contain antimicrobial additives that continuously inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungus, and molds that cause odor and detrimental aesthetic and mechanical property changes to the finished plastic part.

Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives Antistatic Additive APPLICATION BULLETIN Plastics often undergo charge build-up, which can lead to handling problems and electrical discharges. Please be aware that there are certain applications Avient’s Mevopur products have not been designed for, nor are they promoted or intended for use in: including, but not limited to long-term or permanent implants, birth control devices, or plastic surgery.
