COLORMATRIX™
rePrize™
Liquid dispersion chain extender
for PET monolayer, multilayer
and foamed sheet
ColorMatrix™ rePrize™ is a PET and PC compatible formulated liquid dispersion chain extender.
rePrize can be used to replace
virgin PET in PET sheet,
when virgin PET is used in
combination with PCR flake or
regrind, to increase the IV.
This results in an increase
in both the polymer intrinsic and melt viscosity. rePrize is suited to applications in:
• PET monolayer sheet
• PET multilayered sheet
• PET foamed sheet
rePrize can be used to optimise sheet manufacturing processes and product quality,
whilst allowing for increased levels of recycle, contributing towards improved
sustainability and reduced costs

DESIGN MATTERS
Colors
Color can help differentiate your product from the competition on a retail
shelf, dazzle your customers with a variety of unique choices, or even add an
element of safety to your design.
One caveat: Typical TPE shrinkage is around 2% while that of substrate materials
is closer to 1%.
However, price
per pound is just one aspect of the overall cost.

Gaskets are intended to insulate the boxes for
electrical safety, and must be flame retardant to reduce the
chance of fire caused by sparks or electrical overload.
Based on current market data, this
translates to potential increased sales revenue of as much as
€150,000 ($225,000 US).
