CASE STUDY: BERGAMID™ POLYMER FORMULATIONS & GLS™ TPES Challe nge Accepted. Avient material scientists found the perfect combination with a custom rigid nylon formulation for the handle paired with a soft GLS™ thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) in the grip areas. Beyond finding the best material combination—Bergamid™ nylon copolymer and GLS™ TPEs—our global presence and expertise across an array of specialty polymers and colorants, combined with local service and support, helped Victorinox to accelerate development work, streamline production and reach their design goals.

Versaflex™ CF Low Adhesive Build-up TPE for Protective Film Tack Layer Protective films guard the surface of finished goods from initial fabrication through assembly, shipment, storage, and installation. Versaflex™ CF 6668 low adhesion build-up TPE for protective film meets that need. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • High initial adhesion on steel, PMMA, and various other substrates • Stable and low adhesion build-up over time to prevent residue • Low unwinding force for improved efficiency when pasting film • Good gel control • One-step extrusion processing to improve manufacturing efficiency • Reduced VOC emissions compared to current solvent-based coating technology • Can be recycled as a thermoplastic material APPLICATIONS The low adhesion build-up performance of Versaflex CF 6668 TPE makes it ideal for use in protective films for high-end applications including: • Appliance • Household furniture • Building & construction • Automotive PRODUCT BULLETIN www.avient.com Copyright © 2021, Avient Corporation.

comparisons of adjusted net income attributable to PolyOne common shareholders, adjusted earnings per share (EPS) attributable to PolyOne common shareholders 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 that current levels may serve as a base for future performance.
