SPECTROPHOTOMETER CONFIGURATION FOR COA
Type: Datacolor
Illuminate: D65 Daylight
Observer: 10 degree, large area view, specular included
EXPLANATION OF SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC VALUES
DL* Lightness/Darkness Difference (Delta L*)
The shade of gray (black/white)
+ = Lighter
- = Darker
Da* Red/Green Color Difference (Delta a*)
+ = Hue is redder (or less green than)
- = Hue is greener (or less red than)
Db* Yellow/Blue Color Difference (Delta b*)
+ = Hue is yellower (or less blue than)
- = Hue is bluer (or less yellow than)
DC* Difference Attributed to Chromaticity (Delta C*)
+ = More saturated than (more color intensity)
- = Less saturated than (less color intensity)
DH* Difference Due to Hue Only (Delta H*)
DE* Total Color Difference (Delta E*)
DE is a mathematical calculation utilizing the DL*, Da* and Db*, and therefore, used alone this number can be
misleading as to the true color of a material.
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.

What made our performance

in housing starts, and an extremely challenging
economic environment throughout much of Europe.
b) On February 28, 2011, we sold our 50% equity interest in SunBelt to Olin.
