The non-GAAP financial measures include: adjusted Earnings Per Share, adjusted Operating Income, net debt / adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA. In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is a component of Avient’s annual and long-term employee incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations. Management excludes intangible asset amortization from adjusted EPS as it believes excluding acquired intangible asset amortization is a useful measure of current period earnings per share.

How can you make the most of color, from design through processing? Creative and effective use of polymer colorants can have an effect all along the value chain, from brand recognition to competitive differentiation and a greater emotional connection with the product. To get the best results and the maximum benefits from a color strategy, you need the right colorant for the job.

THE CHALLENGE A global business equipment manufacturer decided to develop a premium line of computer mouse products that offered improved ergonomics and soft-touch qualities. The manufacturer sought high-performance material solutions to create these features and significantly improve the computer user’s experience. THE SOLUTION Based on earlier successful projects, the OEM design team again turned to Avient for its unparalleled portfolio of materials, ranging from specialty polymers to thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs).

Figure 7 shows how the rib creates a thick region. Figure 12 is one example of gussets used to help reduce warp on long flat faces by adding strength to the wall, preventing it from buckling or curling in on itself. They should be placed two times the diameter from the outside wall and one times the diameter (D) from an inside wall.

One caveat: Typical TPE shrinkage is around 2% while that of substrate materials is closer to 1%. Another consideration is that recycling either material once it’s overmolded, whether cohesively or with adhesives, can be a challenge. However, price per pound is just one aspect of the overall cost.
