Quality Management Process The Department Natural Team met four times during August to coordinate daily activities and to continue the Quality Implementation Plan. The Quality Implementation Plan was also reviewed with all Vinyl and Yard employees at the monthly safety meeting. The quality video "Everything Can Be Improved" was shown. There are three active employee involvement teams in the department. All three teams met during the month. The V-ll dust team is designing dryer equipment modifications to reduce dusting. The Plasticizer Unloading Team is finalizing their formal presentation of recommendations to plant management. The 5265/5305 Contamination Team is investigating modified polivic addition to reduce reactor wall scale. Also, additional equipment and railcar washing are being tested. Production 1.

Ji . l- - .s VINYL - Continued Monthly Variable Cost Performance Variable costs for the month were unfavorable at $2338.OM resulting from an unfavorable price variance of $2253.5M and an unfavorable efficiency variance of $84.5M. Resin variable cost for August, 1988, was 26.659 versus budget of 20.691 cents per pound. The unfavorable price variance was due to VCM pricing at $2285.9M unfavorable. VCM efficiency for the month was 1.01475 pounds per pound of PVC produced versus the budget at 1.00756 pound per pound. This resulted in a unfavorable variance of $52.1M. The major causes of the VCM efficiency are related to railcar scale differences and accounting of resin used by Compound/Dryblend. Alcotex had an unfavorable variance of $15.1M. The Variance is due to increased 5415 production and the poor quality of the Alcotex used this month. Energy Performance Plant energy performance for August, 1988, was 2830.4 BTU/pound. General The resin raw material in the 744 account was valued at $277.8M Isonox 132 was tested as an emergency kill this month, but is not efficient enough for this use.

Miscellaneous 1. NSF performed an unannounced inspection of our dry blend operation on August 11* The only point for which we were cited was lack of seed-annual cell class testing. A program has since been established to accomplish this testing. 2. D. S. Cox wrote entry programs for the compound/dry blend database project. The system will be initiated in September. 3. Brian Harrison completed an analysis of 290-61 WHT 121 for Vinyl Building Products. No problems were found. 4. Ttoo production runs using the prill form of Sunolite 160 were successful. 5. Blendex 28443 (KM-653 substitute) was trialed in 317-204 WHT 110. The performance was good except for a small number of rubbery clumps in the Gunp overs. 6. Brian Harrison completed color matches for Omega Plastics, Intek (2), Superior Rubber, Corelmex, Condutel, BRlntek, and Ccran/Scope. 7. The lab performed an experimental design on the effects of glycerol monostearate and impact modifier on torque rheemetry and blown film quality of a rigid 5305 formulation for Klockner. Both ingredients affected rheemetry; neither affected blown film quality. 8. Brian Harrison attended a technical meeting at Americhen on 8/23 to discuss colorants for FIX at Premier. ; r.ivtn diiur. -inn ; i- VAB.0001190804 'I'Hi -:?N :-i<: :l?- I If--y+H-i L rM.` h-[|P|: t- |.t # .t; -i j !- --1 ......... i l i .. > : RHSTM Ship Date 8/15/88 8/29/88 JUNE 1988 Product 5385-3S 5385 Amount 5 X 1 lb. 50 lbs.
