Boost color consistency and streamline your product development for increased speed to market with Colorant Chromatics™ PEI masterbatches. Metal-free formulations to boost color consistency and increase speed to market

Together, this allows textile manufacturers to increase production speeds, flexibility, and process control. Our advanced fiber colorant technology is critical to helping these manufacturers address sustainability, production flexibility, and speed-to-market goals to stay on top of these trends."

Spiral flow testing results for GLS products are presented below using injection speeds of 3 in/sec and 5 in/sec. Special TPEs can achieve up to 40 inches at an injection speed of 5 in/sec.

OnColor™ Fiber Colorant Solutions offer environmental benefits with superior spinning performance to help manufacturers enhance their speed to market. Coupled with easy color-on, color-off operations to increase color change speed, the result is higher efficiency and productivity. 

We gained speed working with PolyOne,” said Doug Duchon, VP of R&D for Alliqua BioMedical Inc. As a small company, we never expected that level of service and speed from a supplier, and the outcome is a well-received commercial product.” 

The best solution for IR dryers is to balance dryer belt speed and temperature settings to provide the lowest amount of heat exposure that will result in successfully cured prints.  Increasing Production Speeds To increase production speeds, use finer mesh counts for the flash plate to decrease gel time.

Increased Throughput: To achieve desired bottle quality, many blow molders will slow the blow speed, giving the preform optimal time to heat before blowing. Using process aids can expand the blow molder’s processing window, allowing the molder to increase blow speeds without sacrificing bottle quality. The blow molding team then spends time optimizing energy levels, material distribution, and blow speeds, which is why producing a sufficient number of preforms is crucial.

To correct this problem, raise the processing temperature and reduce the injection speed. Shear rate’ is proportional to the speed or flow rate that a TPE is moving against the wall of the tool. In this example, increasing the processing speed 40% will reduce the apparent viscosity the same as increasing the process temperatures by 20°F.
