Pros: Ultimate in individual product by product verification, smart technology provides other tracking benefits

Scenarios for 2030 predict that of the 1300kt of PET material coming from PET bottles collected from the market yearly, between 20 to 30% will be colored bottles;2 these will enter their respective sorting and collection systems to ultimately produce rPET material that will be fed as new raw material for non-food PET applications.

The ultimate interaction between the white underlay and the dark shirt is critical for setting the tints and shades of the overprinted color set.

Tensile modulus is usually lower – and the ultimate elongation usually higher – in the cross-flow direction.

Provide the ultimate protection for non-carbonated products and carbonated beverages

This laser enhancement additive works by converting visible, UV or IR laser light energy into thermal energy, creating surface marks that contrast the color of resin material. Cesa Laser Marking solutions not only contain a laser marking additive but also deliver a part’s color and can include other performance enhancing additives such as those for scratch or UV resistance.

BENEFITS • High additive loading for optimal UV stabilization • Solutions available for a large number of injection molded polymers including PP, PE, PS, HIPS, ABS, SAN, PA (nylon), PBT, Co-PET, PC, POM and TPU • Can be combined with colors and other additives in Smartbatch™ solutions • Formulations can be customized to meet specific regulatory compliance, e.g., EU and US food contact, toy, UL 94 recognition PRODUCT BULLETIN Copyright © 2023, Avient Corporation. Samples containing Cesa Light Additives (CC01, CC02, CC03) showed limited Delta b (Db) variations, while the non-UV stabilized sample showed a high Db variation and visual yellowing.
