CRITICAL DIFFERENCES What Makes High-Performance Thermoplastics Stand Out? In some cases, they make it possible to surmount performance and processing barriers to create next-generation products and components. However, they do have some limitations: • In parts with thin walls, concentrates can lead to color variations.

It has good tensile, thermal, flex, and impact properties like nylon (PA) while maintaining some of the same characteristics as acetal (POM), such as excellent wear, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability.   

Based on the risk of the proposed product or process change, Avient may advise the supplier what level of detail and planning is required. Suppliers to Avient are expected to impose controls on their sub- tier suppliers comparable to the controls applied to suppliers by Avient. The extent of the controls may vary, depending on the nature and complexity of the product and processes, but should normally include:  Evaluation and qualification of sub-tier supplier facilities  Avient and/or Avient’s customer, where applicable  Control of nonconforming material  Corrective action and preventive action programs  A continuous quality improvement program Where appropriate and agreed upon by the supplier, Avient may specify what sub-tier suppliers may be used, evaluate and qualify the sub-tier supplier’s facilities, and assist the supplier in controlling the sub-tier supplier.

Each of such adjustments has not yet occurred, are out of Avient’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Sharpening focus on cost control & driving productivity in SG&A and in our plants 4. EPS – Q2 2025 $0.79 2025 financial guidance unchanged
