While there is a variety of color difference formulations in use, the CIELAB is most commonly used in the plastics and polymer industry because it offers relatively good visual correlation over a wide range of color space. C.I. numbers refer to the Color Index, the industry’s standard guide. • In each pair of color chips, the left sample represents the masstone or full shade, which is the color hue in clear media Those depicted may not be an exact match for your requirements, but when Avient color experts learn how a color will be used and what materials are involved, they can suggest an appropriate pigment for your specific applications.

WET GRIP TECHNOLOGY PROVIDES POWERFUL SOLUTION FOR SURFCO HAWAII © 2021, All Rights Reserved Avient Corporation, 33587 Walker Road, Avon Lake, Ohio USA 44012 1 Wax Mat® is a trademark of SurfCo Hawaii, Inc. THE SOLUTION Working collaboratively with SurfCo and its manufacturer and processor, Avient set to work on developing a polymeric, wet grip technology. Charging ahead, the company has continued to leverage Avient’s technology and technical expertise to pursue the commercialization of additional anti-skid products for marine and military vessels, and non-slip products for the pool, bath, and walkway markets.

Improve performance, enhance your capability • Meet higher performance requirements with thermoplastic materials • Reduce part weight • Achieve rapid cycle times • Differentiate with expanded manufacturing and product performance capabilities Dramatically increasing impact resistance and stiffness of molded components—without adding significant weight—means that OEMs can meet increasingly demanding application requirements. DESIGN Finally, when creating a component that will meet your application requirements efficiently and economically, it’s important to consider design early in the development process. With a comprehensive approach combining application engineering and industrial design, our technical and design experts will work with you to accelerate your process from concept to finished component.

By putting our customers first and investing in innovation, we have developed a full suite of specialty offerings unmatched in the industry. As we focus on helping our customers grow, we are not reluctant to replace existing business with new technology.

We will also provide more insight into our innovative technologies, margin expectations and capital allocation priorities.” Examples include: • Unique technologies that improve the recyclability of products and enable recycled content to be incorporated, thus advancing a more circular economy • Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint • Sustainable infrastructure solutions that increase energy efficiency, renewable energy, natural resource conservation and fiber optic / 5G network accessibility Avient employs approximately 8,400 associates and is certified ACC Responsible Care®, a founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and certified Great Place to Work®.

Only the required quantities of masterbatches and base resins need to be stored which reduces the risk of slow-moving stocks. Our color matching experts will consider material properties, technical requirements, and regulatory requirements when developing the color concentrates. Color Development & Trends In addition to an extensive color library to choose from, we also provide collaborative design services at our ColorWorks™ design and technology centers.
