Suitable for PET
and rPET preforms and bottles, it can be added to
preforms providing the following benefits:
• Improved blowing performance
• Potential for increased rPET content
• Increased mechanical strength
• Potential for lightweighting
• Improved performance through the
recycle process
• Reduced energy consumption
• No pre-drying requirements
SmartHeat RHC can contribute towards improved
productivity, reduced manufacturing costs,
improved sustainability, and can broaden the scope
for bottle design.
It is
metered into the PET stream just above the extruder
feed throat of the injection molding machine using
an Avient-supplied ColorMatrix dosing system.
Melt processing of SmartHeat RHC is carried out at
typical PET processing conditions at recommended
dose rates, which range from .02% to .075%.

Just a few months ago, we completed the acquisition of the Clariant Masterbatch
business, the largest acquisition in the 20-year history of our company.
It’s in this spirit that we joined legacy PolyOne and the Clariant Masterbatch business,
two complementary businesses, and formed a new one that we’ve named Avient.
Such is the case with the Clariant
Masterbatch acquisition, where
strong free cash flow will allow us to
de-lever quickly.

Just a few months ago, we completed the acquisition of the Clariant Masterbatch
business, the largest acquisition in the 20-year history of our company.
It’s in this spirit that we joined legacy PolyOne and the Clariant Masterbatch business,
two complementary businesses, and formed a new one that we’ve named Avient.
We will deliver for our stakeholders through multiple value creation levers—many of
which are unique to Avient:
o Demand for sustainable solutions, healthcare, and composites, together with Clariant
Masterbatch revenue synergies, that will drive 2021 revenue growth of 8% and long-term growth
in excess of GDP
o Clariant Masterbatch cost synergy capture will result in significant near-term benefit
In addition, we remain committed to increasing annual dividends in line with earnings growth and
opportunistically buying back shares, all while remaining modestly levered.
