Initial applications for OnCap Light Shield additives include disposable medical infusion sets, pharmaceutical packaging, pre-filled syringes, film packaging, bottles, and food storage sheet and film.
Available as a granular masterbatch for injection molding, thermoforming or extrusion, these new additives offer superior performance for most clear polymers, including polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polystyrene (PS).

LSR flows easily into molds with varied wall thicknesses and can fill very long, thin sections of a mold.
Though the viscosity of TPEs are reduced when processed at high shear rates, TPEs must be “packed” into a mold to ensure complete fill-out.
Materials with lower specific gravity will fill more volume and therefore yield more parts per pound.

PRODUCT BULLETIN
GEL MIGRATION PERFORMANCE
ECCOH LSFOH 6153/6154 UV grades offer greater gel migration performance compared to alternative
ECCOH grades.
Gel migration is measured using a quantitative internal method
* 6151 can be supplied with UV protection
* Values concluded from the simulation of materials rheological data and modelling standard extrusion tooling
Pressure: can affect extruder performance, higher pressure gives a lower output at the same rpm
Shear rate: has a relation with self-cleaning of the walls and mixing conditions
Stress: can affect the surface of the product, less stress gives a better surface aspect
