These formulations can be combined with a wide range of reinforcements, modifiers, and fillers to enhance performance requirements and can be tailored to provide chemical resistance and flame retardancy.   By using recycled materials, these formulations can also offer lower Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) values than virgin nylon equivalents. These materials can be used in many industries and applications, including automotive, industrial, electrical, and electronics, offering a more sustainable alternative to virgin nylon without compromising performance.

The increased use of rPET in PET bottles can lead to increased AA levels, but can also compromise bottle mechanical strength and create blowouts, both of which reduce productivity and increase scrap rates. This technology helps to overcome these issues so that higher levels of rPET can be used, and it can be combined with recycle-friendly toners to offset the yellowing common with increased rPET content. ColorMatrix AAzure was developed in response to the need for brand owners and convertors to find solutions that enable increased levels of rPET in their products without reducing performance or quality.

Further, several injection points can be added to run multiple colors or additives at the same time on a single extruder to enhance flexibility. Visitors can also learn about the broader portfolio of PolyOne solutions for textiles, including Wilflex™ screen printing ink solutions for polyester.

It can clear fogging immediately in hot conditions, and within 5 minutes in cold conditions. This additive can be used in both rigid and flexible food packaging, including mono- and multilayer structures. Available as a solid masterbatch, the additive can be extruded with packaging resins without the need for extra equipment.

While these are all good ways to improve a package’s sustainability, they aren’t without their challenges. Increasing PCR especially can be tricky, but here are some considerations for achieving those higher percentages: • Using more PCR can affect the color of your package as PCR streams can vary from region to region.
