Lifocolor BLACK 3030PETG

Lifocolor BLACK 3030PETG is based on various carrier polymers and types of carbon black. Alongside with the UV radiation effect and choice of carrier, the shade, color depth and color strength are the most important characteristics of black masterbatches. The color depth indicates the intensity of the black coloring. Intensity increases with decreased light reflection or increased light absorption.

Features & Benefits

Advantages
  • Efficient black coloring with high color strength
  • Extraordinary color depth for high-quality visible parts
  • Polymer-specific carrier systems to maintain the polymer performance
Product Highlights
  • Color strength is the characteristic of toning down white or other colors. The higher a color strength is, the more the carbon black will tone it down. Color depth and (theoretically) color strength increase as the size of parts decreases.
  • High-quality carbon blacks protect against photo-oxidative degradation. So the finer the carbon black particles are, the better the UV protection is.
  • Lifocolor offers polymerically identical black batch carrier systems for all major standard plastics and nearly all major engineering plastics.
  • The majority of this black portfolio complies with the current 10/2011 EC regulation on plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with food. Special types are licensed in accordance with FDA requirements.
Benefits
  • Black masterbatches are tailor- made according to customers’ specifications.
  • Possible multi-functional batches laser marking, laser welding, extended UV protection, light stabilizers or antistatic agents.
  • Possible functional batches: black masterbatches for laser marking or laser welding (laser- transparent, laser-absorbing).
