Automatic sorting equipment relies on the reflectance of NIR wavelengths to identify polymers and properly sort packaging waste by plastic material.

Static charges that build up on the surface of plastic products can attract dust and dirt, cause sheet and film to cling, and cause stacked products to stick together.

In addition to the lighter weight requirement, the material and process would need to deliver an ultra-low cycle time with improved processability and tailored crystallization dynamics, while also resisting warpage after molding, a common issue for thin walled plastic parts.

With other metallic effect additives, these lines can appear on the surface of a polymer part where molten plastic flow fronts meet during processing.

Additionally, some countries have stringent local fire safety standards for arena and stadium seating, which call for plastics with improved flame retardancy properties, achieved with flame retardant additives.

They also offer the ability for producers seeking more flexibility in managing plastic material inventory to store large quantities of virgin or recycled resin and order flame-retardant concentrates as needed for individual projects.

Capture is recognized by the Association of Plastics Recyclers (APR) to meet Critical Guidance based upon its recyclability with PET bottles.

Non- toxic, non-corrosive and flameproof, inorganic antimicrobials have no negative impact on plastic and synthetic fiber processing.

Cesa™ Anti-Block Slip LS Additives for low-temperature sealing layers in flexible polyolefin packaging FOOD PACKAGING IN A CHANGING MARKET In many food contact applications, flexible plastic packaging is replacing rigid packaging for varied reasons; it has lightweight characteristics, is easy to customize in any shape, and has a favorable carbon footprint.
