Increase sustainability, optimize color usage and reduce weight with just one technology

In some cases, any of these polymers will work, but in others, a specific one is best.

The FlexCart Micro unit, due to its smaller footprint and reduced throughput range, is designed to work with the LN molded polymer containers—specifically the 10-liter pack. Some of the information arises from laboratory work with small-scale equipment which may not provide a reliable indication of performance or properties obtained or obtainable on larger-scale equipment. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

PCR grades are formulated with recycled content including ocean-bound plastics; food packaging from a variety of sources (including material that received a No Objection Letter from the U.S. FDA); oil; or polyvinyl butyral (PVB) from windshields and laminated building glass. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

These silicone paste colorants can be used in one-component and two-component Room Temperature Vulcanization (RTV) systems and two-part Liquid Injection Molding (LIM) systems; they provide excellent dispersion, consistent color, and a suitable viscosity for metering systems.
