Buyer expressly agrees that the colour is subject to deviations which are caused by the nature of the material and is not covered by this warranty. Seller has no liability for the failure in discharging or unloading equipment or materials used by Buyer, whether or not supplied by Seller. In the event of a force majeure, Seller has no obligation to purchase material from third parties for resale to Buyer, nor will Seller bear liability for any costs increases suffered by Buyer in purchasing substitute material from a third party. 14.

Our unique position in the supply chain allows us to work with suppliers to innovate materials solutions to help our customers succeed, while enabling a sustainable world. Use natural resources (e.g., water, sources of energy, raw materials) in an economical way. Inform Avient of financial, economic, supply changes (including origin or conflict status of 3TG metals), government regulations or other materials conditions that could affect ongoing operations or operating decisions, or if the company has been debarred as a government contractor

Benefits include resistance to high temperatures and corrosion, chemical stability, cost effectiveness compared to other materials, and heat weldability to connect different components (e.g. pipes and fittings). It can have an oxidizing effect and shorten the life of pipes made of materials susceptible to oxidization. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Plastisols will most likely change over time and material should be used on a first-in-first-out (FIFO) basis as quickly as possible. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information. Stirring should be done gently so as not to introduce air or heat into the plastisol, but forceful enough to re-disperse any settled material on the bottom.

The Cesa F-Series of FR additives are non- halogenated materials developed to pass strict test methods, providing excellent UL 94 compliance and successfully meeting UL 2335 and FM4998 standards. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

It is well known that detection and sorting of black or dark packaging in material recovery facilities is a complex issue affecting the packaging and recycling industries extensively. Automatic sorting equipment in waste facilities relies on the reflectance of NIR wavelengths to identify polymers and properly sort packaging waste by plastic material.
