• The coarse ground material was then crystallized in a vacuum oven at 160°C before drying the material at 160°C for approx. 4 hours within a PET drier • Plaques were then molded on a BOY XS and 10 of these were kept after each cycle, to take color measurements • This process was then repeated until 5 heat cycles had been completed RESULTS FOR RECYCLABILITY METHOD-1 As plaques were produced while the material went through five different melt heat histories, plaques were produced at each cycle and L*, a*, and b* values were measured. Δb values show a progressive decrease in yellowness while a* value does not show significant changes and L* increases of about 11% with respect to the original 1st melt history value that was measured.

PolyOne manages the implementation of GHS so as to accurately reflect the properties of our products, and while we do not anticipate wholesale changes to the documents that accompany our solutions because of the change, we do believe some changes will be evident.
