CESA™ Slip Additives Lubrication PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE Many polymer processing operations need lubrication to improve the process flow and/or part. CESA™ Slip additives provide lubrication for a multitude of applications. CESA SLIP – STANDARD OFFERINGS CESA Slip additives can be used in combination with other CESA masterbatches, and formulations can be customized for most applications.

Fortunately, there are several kinds of additives that don’t affect future recyclability of PET that can used during processing to correct for this yellowing. Similar to the ones that correct yellowing, there are special additives that “scavenge” or otherwise reduce the levels of acetaldehyde. In addition, chain extender additives can improve IV for better strength and performance.

In addition to surviving the treatment period, if the sample did not exhibit signs of significant crazing or cracking then an additional positive mark was granted. Regarding tensile properties, three additional categories granted positive marks: 1. In addition to Virex® TB, seven other disinfectants common to the healthcare and consumer industry were tested and the results were recorded in Table 3.

COLORMATRIX TRIPLE A™ Additive technology which reduces acetaldehyde levels in PET packaging TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION Acetaldehyde (AA) forms as a result of thermal degradation during PET melt-processing and can increase as temperature, pressure and shear in processing rises. HANDLING AND USAGE RATES Triple A is a dispersion which can be supplied individually or in combination with other ColorMatrix colorant and additive technologies. The additive has no impact on either color or clarity of containers and is easily combined with ColorMatrix color formulations.

Avient™ ColorMatrix™ Joule Reheat Additive Proprietary IR Absorber Avient™ ColorMatrix™ Joule reheat additive is a proprietary IR absorber manufactured and marketed by ColorMatrix worldwide for use in PET resin formulations suitable for carbonated soft drinks and beverage applications. As a major supplier of additives and colors to the plastics industry, ColorMatrix has, in the course of supporting its customers worldwide, developed best practice guidelines for its products which it provides as a free service. Such advice, for example how to set up blow molding machines, is not equipment specific and therefore ColorMatrix would always recommend using local or expert technicians in addition to following best practice points listed below; • Preforms should be conditioned for minimum 24 hours prior to blowing • Preforms should always be used in a FIFO manner (First In, First Out) • Octabins of preforms should be segregated and blown per resin type, i.e. not mixed with other resins • A preform traceability system should be in place such that any process upsets can be quickly followed up and corrected • Enhanced QC preform checking resources for bottle distribution, aesthetics and integrity should be on-hand during the performance optimization trials • Prior to any process optimization, the blowing machine performance should be verified as being within normal i.e. accepted standard ranges and all important components and control features are working satisfactorily.
