OnColor™ RC Environmental Black
Color Concentrate
OnColor™ RC Environmental Black color concentrate
is derived from end-of-life tires, making it
sustainable alternative to concentrates using
virgin carbon black.
The use of OnColor RC Environmental Black helps
reduce environmental impact compared to color
concentrates formulated with traditional carbon
black.

Increasing PCR
especially can be tricky, but here are some
considerations for achieving those higher
percentages:
• Using more PCR can affect the color of
your package as PCR streams can vary
from region to region.
Super concentrates
can give greater flexibility in coloring
higher levels of PCR than traditional
masterbatches, and can be used in a multi-
layer bottle construction
We will consider the type and percentage of
PCR you are using, and will also work with you on
your targeted let-down ratio (LDR) and the color or
special effect you want to attain.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2022-02/ColorMatrix Triple A Brochure.pdf
HANDLING AND USAGE RATES
Triple A is a dispersion which can be
supplied individually or in combination
with other ColorMatrix colorant and
additive technologies.
Universally compatible and
easily combined with ColorMatrix color
formulations.
The additive has no
impact on either color or clarity of
containers and is easily combined with
ColorMatrix color formulations.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-08/colormatrix-optica-toner-dispersions-tech-bulletin-a4.pdf
The PRT product line facilitates precise toner
coloration through superior dispersion, ease of
handling and dosing when compared to traditional
powders.
They are designed to be used separately
but at the same time to control b* and a* color
producing maximum L* color when used at very
low dosing levels in the final product.
This will generate a non-homogeneous
dispersion, resulting in sub-standard coloration
quality in the PET production process.
