ANTIMICROBIAL PROTECTION AND VIBRANT COLOR, ALL IN ONE STEP Challe nge Accepted. Multiple components, each made from different materials, did not appear to be the same color. As a result, the design team at the OEM struggled to find a supplier who could achieve tight color matching tolerances across diverse polymeric materials.

At first, they experimented with pre-colored ABS, but the ABS parts failed the company’s requirements for color retention after exposure to UV light. PolyOne provided a pre-colored version of our Geon M5705 material, customized to match the manufacturer’s gray and black painted metal lights. Due to the commercial success of the gray and black colors, Smart Hero plans to introduce seven new colors made with Geon M5705 material to expand its product line.

Color is everywhere. Product range • A comprehensive selection of colors and color indices • SPDs are produced at various concentrations to meet customer requirements • Good spinnability • Full dispersion • Excellent tinting strength • Maximum fastness properties • Lot-to-lot consistency • Carriers: PET, PBT, PA 6, PP • Continuous filaments (POY, FDY, HOY, BCF) CUSTOM COLORS Our pilot spinning plants are capable of producing a full range of yarn counts, to match custom colors and offer bespoke color options. The extruder is never contaminated with color which translates into faster, more efficient color changeovers that make low volume and custom color production a reality.
