Power of Attorney

       Know all by these presents that the undersigned hereby constitutes and
appoints each of Bradley C. Richardson, Joao Jose San Martin Neto and Lisa K.

to:

1.	Prepare, execute in the undersigned's name and on the undersigned's
behalf, and submit to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC") a Form ID, including amendments thereto, and any other documents
necessary or appropriate to obtain codes and passwords enabling the
undersigned to make electronic filings with the SEC of reports required
by Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any rule or
regulation of the SEC; and

2.	Execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the
undersigned's capacity as an officer and/or director of PolyOne
Corporation (the "Corporation"), Forms 3, 4, and 5 in accordance
with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the
rules thereunder; and

3.	Do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the
undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete and
execute any such Form 3, 4, or 5 and timely file such form with
the SEC and any stock exchange or similar authority; and

4.	Take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with
the foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may
be of benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required
by, the undersigned, it being understood that the documents
executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned
pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and
shall contain such terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact

       The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power
and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever
requisite, necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the
rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the
undersigned might or could do if personally present, with full power of
substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and confirming all that such
attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes, shall
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this power of attorney and the
rights and powers herein granted.  The undersigned acknowledges that the
foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in serving in such capacity at the request of
the undersigned, are not assuming, nor is the Corporation assuming, any of
the undersigned's responsibility to comply with Section 16 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.

	This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4, and 5 with respect to
the undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the
Corporation, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing
delivered to the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.

	IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney
to be executed as of this 17th day of October, 2018.
