Steven Chai, general manager, ColorMatrix Asia, said, “Joule RHB formulations have successfully delivered value through production efficiency and enhanced post-consumer recyclability for customers around the world. Joule RHB is approved for PET food contact applications in China up to a level of 20ppm, and for temperature conditions equal to the U.S. To calculate cost and energy savings when using Joule RHB in specific applications, download the ColorMatrix Energy and CO2 Calculator App.   

Brand owners who collaborate with PolyOne are taking advantage of Gravi-Tech™ Density Modified Formulations, metallic-effect GLS™ thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), and InVisiOSM Color and Design Services. For example, Gravi-Tech formulations impart weight, sound and a metallic finish to caps and closures for both cosmetics and spirits applications, while removing the secondary operations and constraints that traditional metals require.

TPEs can be customized, depending on the application requirements, to provide surface feel ranging from grippy or tacky to smooth and silky. TPEs can be customized with bright colors and effects, such as metallics, sparkles, and pearlescents, and various shine levels, including eye-catching high gloss, which can provide a high-tech or high-fashion aesthetic. They are produced in opaque, semi-transparent, and transparent formulations for additional aesthetic interest.

Formulated to deliver high performance in chemical, fuel contact, and high moisture environments, these thermoplastics are useful in applications found in the industrial, electrical/electronics, transportation and powersports industries.
