JUST ADD LIQUID Quick guide to ColorMatrix™ liquid color for plastics and silicones THE RIGHT COLORANT FOR YOU Understanding which colorant technology best suits your particular product application will help ensure you gain maximum performance and value from your colorant processing. How clean is your color processing? Some of the information arises from laboratory work with small-scale equipment which may not provide a reliable indication of performance or properties obtained or obtainable on larger-scale equipment.

They should be located at the end of flow or around the perimeter of the part, if possible.  If a matte finish is required, a rougher mold texture should be used (or a GLS product such as GLS Versalloy™ TPV Alloys, which naturally produce a matte surface). To learn more about how TPE materials can benefit your product's surface aesthetics, contact an expert at Avient today.

Bridging from the EverMinds™ platform, Borealis and Avient recently completed a joint application study investigating how to optimize color matching when using post-consumer recycled material (PCR) in rigid packaging applications. Those components include Borcycle M 100% recycled polypropylene (rPP) from Borealis in tandem with colorant formulations from Avient along with Avient’s PCR Color Prediction Service, which could digitally illustrate the colorant formulations that are possible. This collaborative study with Borealis is one way in which we can transfer our know-how to our value chain partners to help with closing the loop on plastics circularity.”
