Cesa™ Laser Marking Additives Silcosperse™ LM - Product Bulletin Learn more about Silcosperse Laser Marking additives are laser absorbing silicone dispersions that use UV, YAG or fiber laser technologies

For added convenience, they can be combined with color but also with other additives, such as flame retardants, antistatic or laser marking additives, into a single combination masterbatch. Laser Marking & Laser Welding Our laser marking concentrates provide fast, precise and permanent markings for alphanumeric characters, barcode information and/or aesthetic solutions. Like all of our additive solutions, our laser marking solutions can be combined with color for more flexibility and efficiency.
