Our diverse range of advanced polymers and long fiber reinforced composites gives you the freedom to innovate, create high-strength components that eliminate unnecessary weight, and unleash fresh designs that offer superior performance while remaining economically viable to produce. Engineered polymer formulations are designed to perform in demanding environments.

In automated systems, pipette tips are often made of conductive polymer materials, enabling the tip to sense the liquid and accurately measure the correct amount of liquid being transferred. Conductive pipette tips must meet demanding performance criteria and therefore require a polymer solution with a unique, and often difficult to achieve, blend of properties.

It increases polymer IV in the melt phase, allowing for: • Improved rPET quality and performance • Higher target IV’s • Reduced solid state polymerization time • Increased productivity It also aids in the drive towards the circular economy and helps Brand Owners achieve sustainability targets through: • Reduced carbon emissions • Increased rPET content PCR rPET resin with • Reduced SSP or oven time • Reduced yellowing PCR rPET resin with INCREASED TARGET IV ColorMatrix rePrize allows for increased target IV and increased strength of the rPET material, enabling a wider range of product applications including carbonated soft drinks (CSD). ColorMatrix rePrize is a very reactive additive and any changes to the extruder temperatures and parameters will have an effect on melt viscosity of the polymer and also the finished article.
