PLASTISOL PRODUCTION CAN BE MESSY AND DUSTY • Plastisol is a liquid and when you use liquid, you risk spills on your plant floor. Unless you have a proper air filtration system and/ or protective equipment, it can be inhaled by anyone in the plant, which can potentially create health concerns.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future; the effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks, including recessionary conditions; the current and potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows, including without limitation, any supply chain and logistics issues; changes in polymer consumption growth rates and laws and regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct business; fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters; our ability to pay regular quarterly cash dividends and the amounts and timing of any future dividends; information systems failures and cyberattacks; amounts for cash and non-cash charges related to restructuring plans that may differ from original estimates, including because of timing changes associated with the underlying actions; any material adverse changes in the Dyneema Business; our ability to achieve the strategic and other objectives relating to the Acquisition and the possible sale of the Distribution business segment; and other factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended You are advised to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our reports on Form 10-Q, 8-K and 10-K that we provide to the

These continuous fiber reinforced materials produced in a proprietary pull-forming process feature glass or carbon fibers pretensioned and aligned to maximize the mechanical properties of each fiber for lightweight yet strong laminates and barstock that hold up to extreme and demanding applications. Avient’s reinforced composite technologies use carbon, glass and aramid fibers with custom formulated thermoset or thermoplastic resins in continuous forming processes

During a fire, ECCOH formulations eliminate the production of corrosive gas and toxic fume emissions, and generate a low amount of smoke, meaning they meet the highly demanding Euroclass designations—Class B2ca and Cca—as well as being suitable for other classes such as Dca or Eca. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Highly flame retardant: Flame retardancy helps prevent fire and to limit damage if one starts • Non-halogenated: During a fire, there are no ingredients to cause acidic gas emissions from the polymer, which can damage equipment and buildings • Low smoke: In the event of fire, people are more able to find the escape exit and fire fighters can quickly find the source of the fire • Low toxicity: People are not likely to be overcome by toxic fumes • Low dripping: No flaming droplets are likely to propagate a fire or injure evacuees • Manufacturing efficiency: Easy processing with a smooth surface finish MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS The ECCOH range of specialty polymers help manufacturers meet CPR requirements for power, control and communication cables (including optical fiber cables) used in buildings.
