Re-establishment of the toner package will be
required to achieve proper resin color.
At the
recommended use levels in CSD (carbonated
soft drinks) applications (around 5ppm), the
blue toner is not required and a reduced
amount of the red toner may be desirable (in
some cases red toner can also be eliminated;
this depends on the inherent color of the resin
and so cannot be specified here)

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites combine thermoset
or thermoplastic resins with fiber reinforcement, the resulting
product having substantially different properties than the
individual components.
