It enables:
• Increased rPET content
• Reduced CO2 emissions
When added to PET preforms and bottles,
ColorMatrix AAzure helps to:
• Improve bottle quality
- Reduced preform acetaldehyde
by up to 80%
- Improved mechanical strength
- Lightweighting
• Improve processability
- Reduced bottle blowouts
- Reduced scrap
- Improved productivity
• Reduce energy consumption during
bottle blowing process
ColorMatrix AAzure has a slight blue tint, which is
useful for off-setting yellowing often associated
with the use of rPET, and has minimal impact on
final product color or aesthetics.

During injection molding, longer fibers align and
intertwine to form an internal skeletal network,
enabling a unique set of performance characteristics,
including:
• High strength-to-weight ratio which
facilitates metal replacement to achieve
weight reduction
• Added stiffness and strength to carry loads
while resisting creep deformation
• Increased toughness to absorb impact
forces without permanent damage
• High cyclical fatigue endurance to resist
cracking and crack propagation
• Mechanical performance that is retained
across a wide temperature range
• Improved dimensional stability with nearly
isotropic properties and low thermal
expansion
• Corrosion and chemical resistance
Long fiber composites provide a combination of stiffness, strength, and toughness performance
enhancements not available together when using other reinforcing methods, while retaining the single-
step processing simplicity of injection molding.
