ColorMatrix™ rePrize is a PET compatible formulated liquid dispersion, designed to
increase the polymer chain length via reactive extrusion.
This results in an increase
in both the polymer intrinsic and melt viscosity. rePrize is suited to applications in:
• PET monolayer sheet
• PET multilayered sheet
• PET foamed sheet
rePrize can be used to optimise sheet manufacturing processes and product quality,
whilst allowing for increased levels of recycle, contributing towards improved
sustainability and reduced costs

Achieve complex designs without expensive
tooling – Gravi-Tech material can be injection
molded into unique part shapes utilizing lower
cost molds made of P20 or H13 steel.
Injection-moldable
Gravi-Tech™ density modified formulations can help you achieve the evenly distributed weight, complex
designs, and visual surface effects of metal without the extra costs and steps associated with die cast mold
tooling or secondary assembly operations.
Optimizing Injection Velocity
The objective of this step is to find where the
injection velocity will fill out the part completely,
and not pressure limit the machine.
