Design freedom = unique product offering: The ability to injection mold Gravi-Tech materials instead of machining brass enabled API to design a cost-effective, full-opening flapper valve that is 100% pigable

ColorMatrix rePrize is a very reactive additive and any changes to the extruder temperatures and parameters will have an effect on melt viscosity of the polymer and also the finished article.

Triple A™ offers a cost- effective and reliable solution for reducing and controlling AA levels which can cause off-taste in products packaged in PET.

It is important to appreciate that the toner component is only very sparingly soluble in MEG, and so the products are both effectively particulate dispersions.

Swellcoat yarns are engineered to protect optical fibers against the damaging effects of water penetration in cable applications.

Simpler production process – Overmolding Versaflex PKG TPEs is an effective method for simplifying a two-step process into a single step

Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure PolyOne's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.

The new accounting standard is effective 2018年1月1日 and requires all components of annual periodic pension and postretirement costs, other than service costs, to be presented below Operating Income.
