Each trend consists of 5 colors and effects representing the trend’s different facets, which can be complementary or contradictory. It highlights how different countries and cultures focus on celebrations of life and how the relationship between our longevity and our legacy will define us far into the future.  Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint  

Every molding machine is different in actual performance. Many different types of gates can be used such as edge, tab, fan, and tunnel gates. PC Compounds: 0.001"–0.002" depth and 0.250" width PC/PSU Compounds: 0.002"–0.003" depth and 0.250" width PES Compounds: 0.003"–0.004” depth and 0.250" width PEI Compounds: 0.001"–0.003” depth and 0.250" width PP Compounds: 0.001"–0.002” depth and 0.250" width ABS Compounds: 0.0015"–0.0025” depth and 0.250" width PEEK Compounds: 0.002"–0.004” depth and 0.250" width Nylon Compounds: 0.002" min. depth and 0.250" width Increase vent depth to 1.0mm (0.040") at 4.0mm (0.250") away from the cavity and vent to atmosphere.

Renol™ Fiber Colorants Deep Black Colorants for PET Fibers The textile market, particularly in the automotive textiles, apparel, and home decor sectors, has long sought after deep black colorants that offer exceptional jetness and light fastness without incurring exorbitant costs. Satisfying all these market needs has proven challenging as different color technologies achieved different results that only partially fulfilled them. The Renol™ Fiber Colorants portfolio includes deep black solutions with high light and washing fastnesses for polyester fibers including recycled grades.

This technology protects light-sensitive dairy products such as ultra-pasteurized milk and protein-enhanced yogurts from photo-induced degradation by providing 99.99% UV and visible-light blocking. As a market leader in oxygen, light, and UV barrier solutions for the packaging market, we continue to develop technologies that enable manufacturers to achieve these goals." They are based on management's expectations that involve a number of business risks and uncertainties, any of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements.

The lightness (L*) values, green–red (a*) opponent values, and blue–yellow (b*) opponent values defined by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) color space were used to identify differences in color, and the yellowness index (YI) was measured in accordance with ASTM D1925. Furthermore, an investiga- tion of smooth versus textured surfaces containing a light stipple texture (T-2102) was performed but did not demon- strate significant differences (p < 0.05) in JIS Z2801 testing with E. coli (Table S2).

The TPEs are formulated without animal derivatives and are suitable for different Shore A durometer ranges. The new range contains shades commonly used in medical devices: yellow, mid and dark grey, mid green, light and dark blue, white, and black. Three standard white colorants in bio-polyethylene are also available for pharmaceutical packaging manufacturers.
