Chroma Color Corporation UltraPET™ color concentrate represents continued growth in color innovation based on G3 patented technology. UltraPET™ achieves the highest pigment levels versus any existing colorant technology translating into lower coloring costs for customers – without jeopardizing processing rates or pigment dispersion.
Key attributes of the UltraPET™ color concentrate include:
- Polymeric carrier that is low melting and has excellent compatibility with the base polymer. The polymeric carrier will not migrate and cause screw slippage issues
- Melts at 50% lower temperature than traditional PET based carriers
- Improved rheology and larger surface area leading to a faster incorporation rate
- Compatibility with PET bottle resins
- High loading capability
- No need to recrystallize
- Drying may not be required at low use rates for tints
- Resistance to alcohols
- Reduced housekeeping cost compared to liquid color
- FDA compliant
Targeted applications for this new UltraPET™ product line include cosmetic packaging, vitamin bottles, nutraceuticals, sample liquor bottles, spice jars, thermoformed sheets and much more.
