They should be placed in the direction of the feeding flow front and at the base of the sprue (Figure 8). For styrenic-based TPEs, the gate depth (D) should be 25-35% of the TPE component’s wall thickness at the gate entrance; 35-50% for urethane-based TPEs. For styrenic-based TPEs, the gate depth (D) should be 25-35% of the TPE component’s wall thickness at the gate entrance; 35-50% for urethane-based TPEs.

Support services include: • New product trial support • On-site product and equipment training programs • Issue troubleshooting • Best practice production process and maintenance reviews • Equipment selection guidance • Process reporting • Inventory management support • Equipment housekeeping There are extensive requirements governing polymer based products, from chemical legislation imposing requirements on the manufacture, marketing and use of the initial raw materials to compositional and good manufacturing practice requirements for the finished materials. Liquid colorants are helping to minimize the environmental impact of coloring in a number of ways: • Liquid carrier systems are typically made largely from natural oil-based renewable sources • Liquid systems can be dosed with the highest degree of accuracy and control, minimizing wastage through overdosing • ColorMatrix’s latest PLANETPAK™ delivery packs have a fully recyclable outer and are engineered to enable 99% product recovery allowing further efficiencies to be made • The concentrated nature of liquid colorant systems mean that inventory requirements are inherently very low.
