A thermoplastic is not cross-linked, so it can be re-melted and re-formed, much like an ice cube that can melt and re-freeze. See More Articles Find Your Product Find Your Product Contact an Expert See More Articles Find Your Product Find Your Product Contact an Expert

In order to deliver the best blow molding performance, it is customary within the conversion industry to establish ‘recipe’ guidelines per resin/per supplier as different PET resin production technologies and different specific resin formulations can significantly influence the blow molding performance. As a major supplier of additives and colors to the plastics industry, ColorMatrix has, in the course of supporting its customers worldwide, developed best practice guidelines for its products which it provides as a free service. Such advice, for example how to set up blow molding machines, is not equipment specific and therefore ColorMatrix would always recommend using local or expert technicians in addition to following best practice points listed below; • Preforms should be conditioned for minimum 24 hours prior to blowing • Preforms should always be used in a FIFO manner (First In, First Out) • Octabins of preforms should be segregated and blown per resin type, i.e. not mixed with other resins • A preform traceability system should be in place such that any process upsets can be quickly followed up and corrected • Enhanced QC preform checking resources for bottle distribution, aesthetics and integrity should be on-hand during the performance optimization trials • Prior to any process optimization, the blowing machine performance should be verified as being within normal i.e. accepted standard ranges and all important components and control features are working satisfactorily.

Melt processing of SmartHeat RHC is carried out at typical PET processing conditions at recommended dose rates, which range from .02% to .075%. FOOD CONTACT SmartHeat RHC has food contact approvals shown in the table below. For information about food contact approval status for any other regions, please contact your local sales representative.
