Created using ColorMatrix™ advanced liquid color dispersions, the new colorants  produce effects such as iridescent color movements and unique surface appearance that can enhance brand presence and deliver differentiated shelf impact across beverage, personal care and household product packaging applications. Gary Fielding, marketing director, PolyOne ColorMatrix, explained, “These new, eye-catching formulations give our customers the freedom to push design boundaries and react to global color trends, without disrupting their existing processes. When working closely with customers early in the design stage, we can use these solutions to help them maximize shelf appeal and increase market share.”

With the introduction of moisture-cured ECCOH XLS technology, wire and cable manufacturers can now choose the most cost-effective technology for specific production environments when selecting a low smoke and fume, non-halogen composition: ECCOH XLS enables manufacturers to efficiently process a non-halogenated, flame-retardant material without capital investment in extra equipment or adding steps to complete crosslinking. The new material can be cured in a water bath as part of a processing line, or within ten days at ambient temperature regardless of humidity levels, and offers excellent processing and flame retardant performance. 

It combines pigments and functional additives into one solution without creating a negative impact on color or mechanical properties. Rejoin can be added at the press using standard equipment and having little to no impact on processing.   Formulations can include both colorants and functional additives
