Avient developed a Color Simulation Tool to calculate the final color of a PCR-based end article and that can be used to:
Calculate color corrections to meet a target color
Based on PCR spectral data, the tool delivers the calculated spectra, a final color visualization and offers three-dimensional color space simulations, that covers the workable color space.

The Company does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures,
such as outlook for adjusted earnings per share, to the most comparable GAAP financial
measures on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to provide a meaningful or
accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without
unreasonable effort.
Below is a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial
measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

When a chemical stress
cracking agent diffuses into a polymer network it
can increase the chain mobility and free volume of
the system.
Generally speaking,
the more frequently a part is exposed to a stress
cracking agent, the more opportunities the agent
has to penetrate or diffuse into the polymer network
and cause damage.
In this study, Avient’s Trilliant™ HC8900 and Edgetek™
ET8900 thermoplastics were tested alongside
competitive materials used for various medical
and consumer device enclosures.
