This formulation is created for high-pressure injection molding and is integrated directly into plastic materials. Technical information, design guides, processing information and more.

Our ColorMatrix™ SOS Small Order Service delivers flat pricing for lower volumes and couples that with fast turnaround in color design and production. The service is available in North America for injection molding applications using polyolefin resins.  

Masterbatches at lower concentrations designed to meet specific customer needs It works by injecting liquid color at high pressure into the polyester melt-flow between the end of the extruder, or melt-pipe, and the spin head. LIQUID FIBER PRODUCT FEATURES Multiple color production • Depending on the manufacturing set-up, several injection points can be added to enable multiple color production at the same time on a single extruder Batch size flexibility • Fiber producers can manufacture anything from a few kilograms to hundreds of tons using the same simple process Rapid color changes • No extruder contamination and easy color-on, color-off operation increases color change speed Waste reduction • Rapid color changes, precise metering and the ability to adjust color in-line reduces waste during color changeovers Continuous metering & long spin pack life • High pigment and dye concentrations mean fewer pack changes are required • Where color is running low for larger volume runs, low level metering sensors alert operators and packs can be changed without disrupting production In-line IV adjustment • Specialist additives are available to adjust Intrinsic Viscosity (IV) in-line for rPET applications • These additives are available as single products, or can be combined with color to create a multi-functional formulation Color design service • ColorMatrix offers a dedicated color design service to help shorten product development cycles and enhance market agility Liquid color processing • Formulations are stable at temperatures up to 60°C and retain good flow properties at temperatures as low as 10°C • These formulations can help lower yarn friction and abrasion, and there is no fuming or evaporation during production COLORMATRIX FLEXCART LIQUID DOSING SYSTEMS Designed to optimize the benefits of liquid colorant and additive technologies, each ColorMatrix™ FlexCart™ model is highly flexible, and offers high-level dosing accuracy and controllability for all injection molding and extrusion applications.

By combining custom color concentrates with performance additives, Smartbatch formulations blend design and function in one masterbatch solution. Our in-house design team will work with you to identify emerging color trends and choose a palette that can engage consumers. We’ll provide step-by-step guidance, and visualization through in-house sampling with various processing techniques: • Injection stretch blow molding (ISBM) • Extrusion blow molding (EBM) – up to four layers • Injection molding Our polymer science proficiency, colorants and additives capability, and in-house color design service make us a powerful collaborator during the complete blow molding process.

Furthermore, LFT composites are injection-moldable, providing a highly repeatable process that increases production efficiency and reduces scrap. Engineered polymer formulations are designed to perform in demanding environments. Our long fiber composites offer an excellent opportunity for automotive aftermarket designers to enhance their components’ performance, aesthetics, and sustainability.
