Overview of how Avient serves wire & cable customers, highlighting both power and data cables technologies Corrugated Sheet Extrusion Sheet & Strap

Graphene is a flat, single layer of carbon atoms in sheet form that is significantly stronger than steel.3 It has a high surface area-to-volume ratio, high tensile strength (how much it can stretch before it breaks), and high electron mobility (the speed at which its electrons move when voltage is applied).4 Graphene is not a new material, but it recently became commercially available and is now being used as a polymer additive. Boyson, et al., “Graphene: Sheets of Carbon-based Nanoparticles,” http://www.dummies.com/education/science/nanotechnology/graphene-sheets-of-carbon-based-nanoparticles/ 5E. Compounds at the high end of the resistivity scale shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio-frequency interference (RFI).1 Faster data transmission and broader electromagnetic frequencies are driving the need for better EMI/RFI protection for electronic devices.2

The ASPC has two subcommittees focused on physical security and cybersecurity, with the latter having a global privacy program to help ensure our organization maintains compliance with ever-changing privacy laws, including General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), as well as specific laws in all countries and regions in which Avient operates. As cybersecurity risks continue to evolve, we must protect against threats against our data, facilities and operations.

These custom-engineered products are available with a wide variety of core materials, including end-grain balsa, foam or engineered woods and laminate face-sheets with continuous fiberglass and/or carbon fiber reinforced polyester, vinyl ester and epoxy or custom resins.

The company noted that proceeds from the sale will be used to strengthen its balance sheet and fund future growth initiatives, including investing in sustainable solutions and specialty acquisitions.

Sheet metal restricts design flexibility, and different automotive OEMs request different attachment configurations for the part,” Spiess explained.

The increased demand for data capacity and low latency, plus the growing volume of connected devices requires more base stations and higher frequencies.
