Glass-filled polyketone (PK) formulations provide a nylon alternative with excellent chemical resistance and a lower carbon footprint  Carbonateds

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are defined as fluorinated substances that contain at least one fully fluorinated methyl or methylene carbon atom without any hydrogen, chlorine, bromine, or iodine atom attached to it.  The second approach involves eliminating the use of fluorochemicals (the carbon fluorine bond) and working with alternative hydrocarbon chemistries.

This helps increase productivity and reduce energy consumption, helping to reduce carbon emissions. It increases polymer IV in the melt phase, allowing for: • Improved rPET quality and performance • Higher target IV’s • Reduced solid state polymerization time • Increased productivity It also aids in the drive towards the circular economy and helps Brand Owners achieve sustainability targets through: • Reduced carbon emissions • Increased rPET content Extruder PCR Flake SSP Reactor TIME IV rPET resin with increased IV With rePrize • Reduced SSP or oven time • Reduced yellowing IV lift in extruder Without rePrize Extruder PCR Flake SSP Reactor TIME IV rPET resin with increased IV With rePrize Without rePrize IV lift in extruder INCREASED TARGET IV ColorMatrix rePrize allows for increased target IV and increased strength of the rPET material, enabling a wider range of product applications including carbonated soft drinks (CSD).
