Abstract

Abstract

Colour change from black to white has always been considered one of the most difficult aspects of plastics processing. It is even worse when it comes to preforms and closures, where even the slightest imperfection can lead to the rejection of an entire batch.

​

Fortunately, there is a solution: the use of a state-of-the-art purging compound ULTRA PLAST:

  • Fast, safe, 100% chemical action, no soaking time, no smell, no smoke, fully recyclable.

  • Most importantly: NO ABRASIVE ADDITIVES -> It can be injected/moulded without the risk of damaging the delicate hot runner.

  • No need to change process parameters.

  • From B(L)ACK TO WHITE in less than an hour.
