PRODUCT BULLETIN
ColorMatrix™ Optica™
PET Blue Toners & Colors For Enhanced Recyclability
ColorMatrix™ Optica™ patented liquid blue toners
and colors are formulated for improved heat
stability and are designed for addition to PET
preforms or rPET to correct and reduce yellowing
that occurs during the recycling process.
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.

Such recipes
define the overall power input as well as the
lamp configuration and other important process
variables consistent with the resin and preform/
bottle design.

Set up conditions
Configuration
- When starting to process a new resin, first
run through new preforms for 15 minutes at
‘standard’ conditions to establish steady state
conditions prior to any process optimization
- Slowly start to reduce preform blowing
temperatures until failures are present
(visible pearl internal wall or pearl feet)
- Increase blowing temperatures until defects
are eliminated
- QC check bottle quality for acceptance versus
established tolerances
- Change the power consumption profile in the
ovens for early heat and longer sink times but
ensure overall temperatures do not exceed cold
crystallization temperature
- Repeat temperature reduction stage and
then defect elimination stage to test if further
optimization is possible
- Recheck QC bottle quality for acceptance versus
established tolerances
- Log all process parameters and create new
specific ‘recipe’ for future use
