With that in mind, we now have solid and liquid non-PFAS process aid additives for some applications that can eliminate melt fracture and reduce die buildup during processing.
Learn more about our solid solution, Cesa™ Non-PFAS Process Aid for Extrusion, and our Colorant Chromatics™ Evoluscend™ Non-PFAS High-Temperature Mold Release Additive.

MAGIQ FIBER
COLORANTS - LIQUID
Part of our MagiQ Fiber Colorants & Additives brand, and manufactured
under ColorMatrix™ Fiber Colorant Solutions, this breakthrough technology
combines advanced liquid color formulations with state-of-the-art, high-pressure
metering equipment to enable late-stage injection of liquid color for spun-dyed
polyester melt.
It works by injecting liquid color at high pressure into the polyester melt-flow
between the end of the extruder, or melt-pipe, and the spin head.
A broad spectrum palette of liquid colorants (40%–80% pigment or dye loading)
is available for custom colors and a variety of pigment and dye preparations,
including additives and color and additive blends, available on request.

This kind of layered packaging is common in dairy products because it keeps the liquid inside while keeping bacteria outside.
This additive is particularly suitable in packaging for ultra-high temperature (UHT) liquid dairy products, as these types of products have a longer shelf life, making them more susceptible to light-induced oxidation due to ambient storage conditions.

Therefore, they require less color concentrate to achieve a particular color and the colors produced are cleaner (less yellow) than other TPEs.
Liquid colors can be used but the carrier should be a paraffin type mineral.
