Consider, too, that additional supply chain issues
regarding pigments, stabilizers and additives that
are regularly rationalized out of production can
leave you scrambling for last minute formulation
alternatives that require requalification.

In addition, this material can be used in tools originally
constructed for halogenated materials with no rework
required.
Additional advantages of these TPEs include:
• Highly flame retardant without the inclusion
of halogens
• Low temperature flexibility
• Excellent processability
• Good abrasion resistance
• Excellent colorability
• Operating temperatures from -50° C to +100° C
• All grades meet UL94-V0 at 1.5 mm
• All grades pass IEC 60695-2-12 Glow Wire Flammability
Index (GWFI) at 960°C

Antimony trioxide has the unique ability to make halogen-based plastic additives more effective in reducing
the flammability of the finished plastics.
ATO has also been found to be useful as a catalyst for
PET manufacture, as a frictional additive in automotive brake linings, as a clarifier for glass, as an opacifier for
enamels, as a coating for titanium dioxide applications, and as a stabilizer for certain pigments.

traditional materials such as wood, drywall,
and framed wall assemblies, offering a
lightweight yet durable solution for easier
transport and installation, while maintaining
structural integrity
• Durability: Resistant to rot, moisture,
chemicals, UV, and corrosion, ensuring long-
lasting performance
• Efficiency: Consolidated structural panel
reduces labor and assembly time, maintaining
structural integrity throughout the installation
process
• Versatility: Can replace gypsum and drywall
in wall construction, offering strong adhesive
bonding properties and paintable surfaces
• Material Consolidation: Integrates flame
retardant properties and eliminates the
need for additional sheets or coatings for
fireproofing, simplifying the building process
• Highly Customizable: Avient offers a wide
range of custom size configurations and panel
options, allowing builders to meet specific
project needs
• Sustainability: FR technology is not
halogenated or phosphorus-based, and is made
with benign ingredients at low concentrations,
making it an environmentally friendly option
Hammerhead™ FR Flame Retardant Composite Panels

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(In millions, except per share data)
Senior management uses gross margin before special items and operating income before special items to assess performance
and allocate resources because senior management believes that these measures are useful in understanding current profitability
levels and how it may serve as a basis for future performance.
In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is
a component of Avient annual and long-term employee incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations.
