THE INDUSTRY REQUIREMENT Changing legislation, brand responsibility, and a desire to support the circular economy are all driving factors pushing the need for increased packaging recycling. These factors result in an increased requirement for toners and specialized solutions that are designed to withstand the recycling process, and ensure optimum packaging is achieved in terms of color and quality. Since the formulation also has improved heat stability, it will not accelerate yellowing during the recycling process, and will also help reduce energy consumption and improve bottle mechanical strength by incorporating all the added benefits from the SmartHeat RHC technology.

Foaming Prediction Service Simulation software to predict behavior and maximum weight reduction LIGHTWEIGHTING CHALLENGES Reducing vehicle weight is a longstanding challenge within the automotive industry. Foaming parts is a well-established technology used to successfully reduce part weight, supporting OEMs to reduce fuel consumption and work towards achieving their sustainability goals. Validating foamed parts before production requires extensive testing, which is time-consuming and can be expensive.

The technology is highly suitable for printable sheet, where smooth surface finish and low density is a requirement. Specific grades are available to meet food contact requirements and also as nucleating additives for physical foaming agents. PRODUCT BULLETIN EXCELITE - COMMON FORMULATIONS USAGE RATES Typically Excelite additives are dosed between 0.2% and 1.2% depending on the polymer, application and the density requirement.
