This guide will focus on the latter and highlight best practices to reduce areas of localized stress at common areas of concern, such as corners and edges as well as reinforcing and assembly features. In some filled plastic materials, through-holes are best added in a post-process step. You have the responsibility to conduct full-scale end-product performance testing to determine suitability in your application, and you assume all risk and liability arising from your use of the information and/or use or handling of any product.

Testing the application is highly recommended to determine the effect recycling has on the desired physical properties. Runners • Full-round runners or a modified trapezoid runner are the best designs. Well depths approximately 1.5 times the diameter of the runner provide the best results.

Cesa™ Clean Additives WHEN TO USE CESA CLEAN As a best practice, Cesa Clean adds value when used for: • Color changeovers • Material and formulation changes • Shutdown or startup • Machine maintenance WHY USE CESA CLEAN Some of the ways you can benefit from consistently using Cesa Clean: • Improve production uptime with faster color changeovers • Reduce wasted melt puddle material • Reduce resin use during purging • Non-abrasive and safe to use on precision equipment PRODUCT BULLETIN Cesa Clean solutions are available for use in a variety of processing conditions and operating temperatures. You have the responsibility to conduct full-scale end-product performance testing to determine suitability in your application, and you assume all risk and liability arising from your use of the information and/or use or handling of any product.

By selecting these advanced masterbatch colorants, manufacturers who produce bio-degradable polymer packaging can avoid the significant costs and time required to test their products for at-home compostability. Combining our advanced colorant technology with bio-based polymers reduces the risk and cost of post-process testing, allowing processors to take full advantage of the emerging market for bags and packaging capable of home composting.”

Tested in accordance with JIS Z2801 and ASTM G21-15 standards, these additives protect molded plastic parts by inhibiting bacterial growth (99.9 percent or more) and resisting fungal and mold growth. Tested against common microbes, GLS TPEs with antimicrobial additives are proven to protect finished parts from microbial growth on both textured and smooth surfaces.

Material testing shows that it surpasses other TPEs on the market in resisting the oil and abrasion often encountered with demanding usage. Testing under ASTM D3389 proved that this new material delivers 40 percent better abrasion resistance than a leading competitor’s product, as well as incumbent GLS nylon overmolding grades.

In addition to these creative hues, reSound NF is now available in formulations that have been tested and proven for profile extrusion, expanding its use to potential extrusion applications in building and construction, sports and leisure, and furniture manufacturing. Independent testing has shown that reSound NF formulations offer equivalent performance to short glass fiber reinforced alternatives, at a 5-10% lower density.

James Petrie, marketing director for PolyOne Color and Additives, explained, “This expansion of the OnColor HC Plus portfolio reinforces our commitment to the healthcare industry and adds new alternatives for customers who seek to streamline their qualification, testing and supply chain management processes.” Said Petrie, “An expanded line of OnColor HC Plus colorants not only gives our customers more options, it also gives them confidence as they move forward with regulatory testing to meet the demands of the global marketplace.”

Their presence in the fibers can be detected during specific tests to confirm the ownership of the fibers to a specific customer/product line the textile originated from. Supplied with a testing service package
