OnColor™ NIR Sortable Colorants – enable black and dark packaging to be detected and sorted for recycling and are the most recent innovation to receive APR recognition.

New reSound NF color options include beige, copper, terra cotta, green, blue and black hues.

The Additives for Recycling (A4R) portfolio, including Cesa™ Unify™ A4R and Cesa™ Nox A4R – with formulations that play a crucial role in aiding compatibilization and protecting post-consumer polyolefins against oxidation, which can lead to defects like black spots, gels, and discoloration.

For the lamp components, Schneider Electric’s designers wanted a globally available material with ‘water clarity’ to make it easier for users to see the glow-in-the-dark switch in pitch-black conditions.

Available in translucent and black formulations, this new overmolding TPE grade can be custom colored to meet aesthetic and branding needs.

Formulations are available globally in a standard black color at typical weight percentages of long glass fiber, long carbon fiber, or hybrid combinations.

It is better to fill out the part at slower speeds in-order to let any compressed air escape, and to get the best surface finish on the part.3 • Using all of the previous settings, record the Transfer Pressure, Fill Time, and Injection speed • Reduce the injection velocity by 10% and record the same values Transfer Pressure (psi) Fill Time (sec) Injection Velocity (in/sec) Relative Shear Rate Relative Viscosity 1238 0.20 8.00 5.00 247.60 1125 0.22 7.00 4.55 247.50 1058 0.25 6.00 4.00 264.50 960 0.35 5.00 2.86 336.12 870 0.45 4.00 2.22 391.65 780 0.58 3.00 1.72 452.59 690 0.85 2.00 1.18 586.78 600 1.35 1.00 0.74 810.45 510 2.50 0.75 0.40 1275.83 420 5.23 0.50 0.19 2198.34 330 9.56 0.25 0.10 3157.99 240 15.26 0.10 0.07 3667.49 FIGURE 47 - Injection Speed 22 Gravi-Tech • Keep reducing the injection velocity until a fill time of 10-15 seconds is reached • Calculate the Relative Viscosity for each of the Injection Speeds using the equation above (Transfer Pressure * Fill Time) • Calculate the Relative Shear Rate for each of the injection speeds using the equation (1/Fill Time) • Plot the points on a graph and find the optimum velocity • The optimum velocity will be where the curve starts to level out In figure 48 above, the optimum velocity is where the plotted line crosses the black trend line; therefore the optimum velocity would be about 1.00 in/sec.

Cesa™ Nox A4R is a specialized antioxidant additive that stabilizes polyolefins during processing, preventing typical defects such as discoloration, gels, and black spots — in initial, and future conversion steps and recycling loops. Black colorant created without the addition of carbon black pigments.
