Functional Benefits The result of a partnership between trusted security provider SICPA and Avient, PLASTIWARD is an end-to-end security solution that integrates taggant molecules into your products’ polymer masterbatch.

Like all Avient’s fiber concentrates (a.k.a. masterbatches), they are typically incorporated into the fibers using spin-dying technology during yarn manufacturing.

The judicious use of color masterbatch, additives to provide texture to a part, and other color and additive formulations enable manufacturers to realize innovative color matching even as they incorporate new materials into the mix.

In addition, it has been just over a year since we acquired Clariant Masterbatch and we became Avient.  to highlight our sustainable solutions portfolio, Clariant Masterbatch integration synergies and future growth plans.  The company acquired the Clariant Masterbatch business ("CMB") on

GAAP EPS from continuing operations of $0.25, compared to $0.30 in the prior year second quarter - Adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $0.39, excluding the impact of the financing for the Clariant masterbatch acquisition. Completed acquisition of Clariant's masterbatch business for net purchase price of approximately $1.4 billion and announced new company name: Avient Corporation Management will provide more commentary related to its second quarter performance, the Clariant Masterbatch acquisition and initial thoughts on third quarter performance on its upcoming conference call.

All information relevant to the first colorant batch is archived and stored for the life of the color. Product range • Flame retardants to reduce flammability of fibers and fabrics especially in building and construction applications • Light stabilizers to protect fibers used outdoors or exposed to sunlight against UV light • Antimicrobials to protect hygienic fiber products from bacteria proliferation • Antistatics to reduce electrostatic charges • Antioxidants to reduce polymer oxidation during spinning and protect fabrics during service life • Optical brighteners to provide a brilliant white effect and blueish hue • Electrets to retain electrostatic charge on the polymer surface for a longer period of time in filtration applications • Hydrophobics to impart durable water repellency • Chain extenders for recycled polyester fibers • Others on request Product characteristics • Good spinnability • Fiber-specific QC and protocols • Lot-to-lot consistency • Carriers: PET, PBT, PA 6, PP, and others • Possibility to combine colors and additives into a combination concentrate for convenience • Product guidance from our fiber expert team • Focus on safe and sustainable formulations • Continuous filaments (POY, FDY, HOY, BCF) • Long and short spinning staple fiber • Nonwoven processes (spunbond and meltblown) Cesa™ Fiber Additives MagIQ™ Liquid Fiber Colorants & Additives Multiple color production • Depending on the manufacturing set-up, several injection points can be added to enable multiple color production at the same time on a single extruder Batch size flexibility • Fiber producers can manufacture anything from a few kilograms to hundreds of tons using the same simple process Rapid color changes • No extruder contamination and easy color-on, color-off operation increases color change speed Waste reduction • Rapid color changes, precise metering and the ability to adjust color in-line reduces waste during color changeovers Continuous metering & long spin pack life • High pigment and dye concentrations mean fewer pack changes are required • Where color is running low for larger volume runs, low level metering sensors alert operators and packs can be changed without disrupting production In-line IV adjustment • Specialist additives are available to adjust Intrinsic Viscosity (IV) in-line for rPET applications • These additives are available as single products, or can be combined with color to create a multi- functional formulation Color design service • Avient offers a dedicated color design service to help shorten product development cycles and enhance market agility Liquid color processing • Formulations are stable at temperatures up to 60°C and retain good flow properties at temperatures as low as 10°C • These formulations can help lower yarn friction and abrasion, and there is no fuming or evaporation during production Avient’s liquid fiber colorant technology combines advanced liquid color formulations with state-of-the-art, high-pressure metering equipment to enable late-stage injection of liquid color for spun-dyed polymer melt.

FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany – October 9, 2023 – Avient Corporation, a leading provider of specialized and sustainable material solutions and services, announced its latest offering, Stat-Tech™ TPE Static Dissipative & Electrically Conductive Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs), which will be launched at the upcoming Fakuma International Trade Fair for Plastics Processing. The new Stat-Tech TPEs have been developed to help enhance system performance, whether protecting sensitive electronics from interference, shielding electronics in Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS), or avoiding static build-up in industrial applications such as conveyor belts.”
