When a lower-performing pigment is used in a material that is processed at a high temperature, the results are not pretty… the material often turns black or degrades. Using pre-colored resin, where every pellet is precisely the right color 2. To mold high-performance thermoplastics, processing equipment must be capable of melt temperatures up to 400°C and mold temperatures up to 200°C.
