CHAPTER 2 | PROCESS SETTINGS
Density Modified Formulations
Gravi-Tech™ polymer-metal composites are high-density materials developed as thermoplastic-
based alternatives to metals.
It
provides additional mixing to the melt, which is
especially helpful when using colorants.

In the Color business, blind random
sampling of the incomming material is used to
verify COA data.
