Decatur: No PFOA or any salt or higher homologue was used in 2007 in the manufacture of fluoropolymerGendorf: Release factor was calculated by dividing the total mass of released PFOA by the total mass of fluusing APFO. This includes both liquid dispersion products and dry fluoropolymers.

Production volume is based on manufacturing records. Dispersion PFOA content is derived from analysis 

Fluoropolymers made in Germany were imported to the U.S. for sale. No attempt has been made to factor APFO content data into this report. The average APFO content of Dyneon’s dry fluoropolymer products is 3 ppm. The 2010 95% product con

met by focusing efforts on reducing the APFO content of the dispersion products, so no dry resin productio

were made to reduce their APFO content. However, this year we are reporting APFO content data for dry 

for the sake of completeness.

No APFO (or any other PFOA salt) has been used at the Dyneon Decatur manufacturing site for fluoroelas

the end of 2004. Fluoroelastomer production does continue at Decatur, without the use of fluorochemical e

polymerization, consequently the products sold are not expected to contain APFO. Reduction in concentration from baseline:  (Total mass of APFO in dispersions in baseline year - Total mass APFO in dispersions in 2008) / Total ma

dispersions in baseline year = 99% reduction in 2008
