In this video, you can learn more about the manufacturing differences between spin-dyeing and bath-dyeing.
The color is embedded into the polyester fibers during the spin-dyeing process, which means it won’t bleed out of the yarn when combined with other colored yarns, including light and white ones.

These new solutions effectively absorb both ultraviolet (UV) and visible light before either can reach light-sensitive contents such as food or pharmaceuticals, helping to reduce their degradation.
Available as a granular masterbatch for injection molding, thermoforming or extrusion, these new additives offer superior performance for most clear polymers, including polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polystyrene (PS).
CAPTION: OnCap Light Shield technology from PolyOne protects the contents of clear packaging from degradation due to ultraviolet and visible light.

PR 202 Semi-Transparent Masstone Tint ADVANCED DISPERSIONS SPECIALTY COLORANTS Spectrophotometric Fact Sheet EXPLANATION OF SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC DATA Avient certifies our colorants based on CIELAB spectrophotometric color difference data for each lot of product.
While there is a variety of color difference formulations in use, the CIELAB is most commonly used in the plastics and polymer industry because it offers relatively good visual correlation over a wide range of color space.
SPECTROPHOTOMETER CONFIGURATION FOR COA Type: Datacolor Illuminate: D65 Daylight Observer: 10 degree, large area view, specular included EXPLANATION OF SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC VALUES DL* Lightness/Darkness Difference (Delta L*) The shade of gray (black/white) + = Lighter - = Darker Da* Red/Green Color Difference (Delta a*) + = Hue is redder (or less green than) - = Hue is greener (or less red than) Db* Yellow/Blue Color Difference (Delta b*) + = Hue is yellower (or less blue than) - = Hue is bluer (or less yellow than) DC* Difference Attributed to Chromaticity (Delta C*) + = More saturated than (more color intensity) - = Less saturated than (less color intensity) DH* Difference Due to Hue Only (Delta H*) DE* Total Color Difference (Delta E*) DE is a mathematical calculation utilizing the DL*, Da* and Db*, and therefore, used alone this number can be misleading as to the true color of a material.
