Various types of processing, such as foaming, can have other hazards, and processing recommendations should be carefully followed.    As mentioned earlier, fluoropolymers can be used in many different areas, and the optimal fluoropolymer type and appropriate color masterbatch will depend on the part’s requirements. Understanding the part size and wall thickness allows a masterbatch to be designed with the appropriate pigment strength, particle size, and dispersibility.

Sourcing the additive as a masterbatch, often bundled with colorant, makes it easier to add to your production process. With that in mind, here are a few caveats to remember during your search for laser marking masterbatches: Make sure you select formulations tailored to the type of equipment you’re using or intend to use

In everyday life, static electricity can be a nuisance. In this area, static discharge can also be a fire risk; a sudden discharge of static can damage products like computer chips or even cause a fire or explosion in hazardous areas. PRODUCT BULLETIN KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Eliminates electric charges to maintain good product appearance • Creates safer, static-dissipated parts for electronics, packaging, automotive, and military applications • Improves product appeal by reducing static charge-related dust accumulation • Reduces the risk of a potential fire hazard in product environments • Reduces cycle times, maximizes throughput, and lowers operating costs • Can be combined with other additives or colorants into a single masterbatch • Compatible with a variety of processes including blow molding, injection molding, extrusion, and film processing • FDA-approved and bio-based formulations available MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS Cesa Stat Antistatic Additives are suitable for any thermoplastic application that could benefit from reduced static buildup, including: • Automotive under-the-hood components • Automotive dashboards • Electrical connectors & components • Electronic components • Military components • Consumer packaging ARE YOU IN A BATTLE WITH STATIC?

It also allows for batch-to-batch consistency to address color variations. There are certain manufacturing limitations that prevent the use of some special effects, select resin types, or specific high color tolerances.

Cesa™ Stat Antistatic Additives PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE Polymers are typically non-conductive, allowing the buildup of a static charge on the surface that can attract dust or damage electronics stored within packaging. Permanent antistatic additives, which function regardless of the relative humidity by creating an internal conductive network, are also available as custom masterbatches.
