L’utilisation de cette solution colorante
dans des emballages rigides en PP avec un taux d’intégration inférieur ou égal à 4% permettra
à l’emballage d’être détecté et orienté vers le flux d’emballages en PP avec des performances
satisfaisantes.
La solution colorante noire CESA® IR PE 94000828 de Avient Corporation utilisée pour colorer
des emballages rigides en PP est une alternative aux solutions colorantes non détectables.
En effet, les
emballages rigides en PP intégrant 4% de solution colorante noire CESA® IR PE 94000828 sont
détectés et orientés vers le flux PP avec les mêmes performances (qualité, taux de captage)
que les autres emballages rigides ménagers en PP.

KEY REQUIREMENTS WHY AVIENT?

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/resources/NOVEL_THERMOPLASTIC_ELASTOMERS_FOR_UNIVERSAL_OVERMOLDING_ON_DISSIMILAR_THERMOPLASTICS.pdf
Thermoplastics are used in various applications, including PP, PS, ABS, copolyester,
SAN, PC etc..
For example, a TPE that can bond to PC does not bond to PP, vice versa.
The failure mode is cohesive on
PP and adhesive on all other substrates.
