At the scientific level, rubber and silicone are both thermoset materials, meaning once the material is molded it is “set” and cannot be broken down to be molded again.

LIQUID FIBER PRODUCT FEATURES Multiple color production • Depending on the manufacturing set-up, several injection points can be added to enable multiple color production at the same time on a single extruder Batch size flexibility • Fiber producers can manufacture anything from a few kilograms to hundreds of tons using the same simple process Rapid color changes • No extruder contamination and easy color-on, color-off operation increases color change speed Waste reduction • Rapid color changes, precise metering and the ability to adjust color in-line reduces waste during color changeovers Continuous metering & long spin pack life • High pigment and dye concentrations mean fewer pack changes are required • Where color is running low for larger volume runs, low level metering sensors alert operators and packs can be changed without disrupting production In-line IV adjustment • Specialist additives are available to adjust Intrinsic Viscosity (IV) in-line for rPET applications • These additives are available as single products, or can be combined with color to create a multi-functional formulation Color design service • ColorMatrix offers a dedicated color design service to help shorten product development cycles and enhance market agility Liquid color processing • Formulations are stable at temperatures up to 60°C and retain good flow properties at temperatures as low as 10°C • These formulations can help lower yarn friction and abrasion, and there is no fuming or evaporation during production COLORMATRIX FLEXCART LIQUID DOSING SYSTEMS Designed to optimize the benefits of liquid colorant and additive technologies, each ColorMatrix™ FlexCart™ model is highly flexible, and offers high-level dosing accuracy and controllability for all injection molding and extrusion applications.

Film processors need to be aware that incorporation of an additive to create or enhance one property or set of properties may also have an unwanted adverse effect on other properties, either inherent in the polymer or created by another additive.
