PRODUCT BULLETIN Syncure™ XLPE Cross-linkable Polyethylene Formulations DBDPE-free solutions for low voltage cable systems The Syncure™ XLPE 200 Series is comprised of engineered, moisture cross-linkable solutions formulated without decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE). With excellent temperature ratings and flame performance, these flame retardant polymers are used for insulation in low voltage cable systems, such as building wires, tray cables, and service entrance cables. Extrudable and easy to process, these formulations are produced by crosslinking a polyethylene base resin and DBDPE-free catalyst using the Sioplas method, which offers significant advantages and economies over alternative crosslinking processes.

Nymax™ BIO Bio-based Polyamide Solutions As brand owners look for new ways to lower their carbon footprint and bring more sustainable products to the market, Nymax™ BIO polyamide formulations can help. These bio-derived and glass fiber-reinforced formulations utilize 16–47% natural filler from renewable plant sources, including corn, straw, and wheat. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Bio-polymers that reduce the carbon footprint value significantly • Achieves equivalent performance as PA66 glass fiber-filled materials • Excellent surface appearance and colorability • Lower warpage compared with PA66 glass fiber-filled materials • Cost-effective alternative to PA66 glass fiber-filled materials • Excellent dimensional stability and property retention rate after water uptake • Commercially available in Asia APPLICATIONS Nymax BIO formulations can be applied to reach sustainability goals in demanding applications including: • Transportation • Consumer goods • Industrial • Building and construction PRODUCT BULLETIN 1.844.4AVIENT www.avient.com Copyright © 2022, Avient Corporation.

Developed to support growing sustainability goals, these bio- polymers offer hardness levels from 30-70 Shore A and property retention comparable to traditional petroleum-based TPEs. Initially available in overmolding grades compatible with PP, all grades are formulated to achieve comparable performance to traditional TPEs. Avient can also develop custom bio-based formulations that expand on the initial reSound BIO portfolio.

Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents are supplied as concentrates and are added to virgin or recycled polymer during the plastic conversion process. Grades are available for polyolefins, PP, PC/ABS, ABS, PA6— filled and reinforced polymers included—and others on request. Grades are available for various polymer formulations, including polyolefins, PVC, and TPU.
