HIGH STRENGTH
Ballistic composites offer
a combination of robust
strength and lightweight
properties, making them
highly effective in resisting
impacts.
GlasArmor™ thermoset
materials harden
permanently when
cured and so are best used
in situations where weather
and/or temperature can
be a factor.

Enhancing polymer materials
with colorants can:
• Differentiate products
• Reinforce branding
• Evoke emotions
• Add value to a
commodity item
• Promote safety
Creative and effective use of polymer colorants, which come in liquid and solid forms,
can have an impact all along the value chain.

PRACTICES
EXPANDING
COLORANT OPTIONS
Avoid limiting yourself to either
solid or liquid forms, and focus
on the requirements of the end
application instead
• Widen your materials and
applications possibilities
• Achieve the desired
effect for each part
• Optimize productivity
and system costs by
matching the right colorant
type to the project
ADDING SPECIAL EFFECTS
Further differentiate and add value to your products
• Examples include: metallic, pearlescent, chrome look,
edge glow, sparkle/glitter, neon/fluorescent look,
woodgrain/stone/camouflage
SELECTING + SIZING
COLORANT EQUIPMENT
Both liquid and solid
colorants can be used in
the same production facility
• Use the right colorant
to significantly impact
production and offer
improvements in terms
of efficiency and quality
