HOW IT WORKS Excelite additives typically contain 70%wt of active chemical foaming agent (CFA), dispersed in a liquid carrier, thus promoting greater product efficiency. EXCELITE VS POWDER • Enables a greater level of density control, through consistent distribution in the polymer • Simplifies and optimizes resin compounding capabilities (PVC dry blends) • Enables greater control over foaming and expands processing window when re-introducing regrind • Clean and highly accurate dosing process, with fewer of the health and safety concerns that can become apparent with powder CFAs EXCELITE VS PELLET • Being significantly more concentrated, Excelite additive enables lower total cost to foam • Can achieve lower density, less carrier influence • Finer and tighter cell structure through better additive distribution • Improved linear consistency of cell structure as ColorMatrix pumps continually meter output, giving greater stability over material dosing • Improved plant working capital as lower let down ratios means less material is consumed and reduces inventory holdings TECHNICAL SUPPORT • Avient has a market leading service team which understands foaming processes, we assist customers to deliver performance and production efficiencies with Excelite™ technology • Please contact your local Avient representative for additional information on our line of foaming additives www.avient.com Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.

This degradation of quality and value over time does not allow a material to successfully reintegrate into the economy. Last but not least, individuals must rethink how they use products and commit to lifestyle changes that will have economic and environmental benefits for everyone. Connect with us to learn more about how Avient can deliver specialized material solutions that keep pace with the ever-increasing demands for sustainability and support the creation of a circular economy.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a significant impact on the world, and our first priority remains the health and safety of our associates, customers and all stakeholders.  Operating income at the segment level does not include: special items as defined in Attachment 3; corporate general and administration costs that are not allocated to segments; intersegment sales and profit eliminations; share-based compensation costs; and certain other items that are not included in the measure of segment profit and loss that is reported to and reviewed by the chief operating decision maker. Senior management uses gross margin before special items and operating income before special items to assess performance and allocate resources because senior management believes that these measures are useful in understanding current profitability levels and how it may serve as a basis for future performance.
