As we shared at our Investor Day in December, we laid out a path to grow organic sales 100 – 200 basis points above GDP with margin expansion by intersecting high growth markets and secular trends with our technologies to create platforms that scale," said By intersecting our broad portfolio of technologies with the product roadmaps of our customers, we help create differentiated and high-performance products that make the world better and more sustainable.

Here the temperature is low enough to initiate condensation if the relative humidity is high enough. As a result, water condenses on a polyolefin film’s surface in discrete droplets with high contact angles. It is also important to remember that a very high proportion of any fruit or vegetable is water.
