Quick Flow Mono-Pigment Technology
FluxQF™, a new kind of pelletized quick-flow mono-pigment, offers a more flexible and sustainable alternative to liquid color. The FluxQF mono pigment technology is a highly loaded pigment formulation incorporating patented quick flow melt properties engineered for fast incorporation during plastic extrusion processes.
FluxQF is ideal for the new SpectroMetric™ 6 in-line color correction system that utilizes the perfect pigment technology when color correcting the inconsistencies of PCR and PIR during extrusion. FluxQF is available in 5 base mono-pigments: white, blue, red, yellow, green, and orange. Depending on the color being corrected during extrusion, custom FluxQF colors can be formulated for proper color correction based on the base color masterbatch formulation being utilized.
- Reduce colorant use–highly loaded for low usage rates using LIAD Smart micro feeding technology
- Increase flexibility–universal carrier is compatible with PE, PP, PET, PS, ABS and PC
- Reduce colorant cost– to color correct PCR and PIR resins
- Simplify color inventory–no need to stock different colors for each polymer
- Improve quality–better distribution of color, reduced swirls and gels
- Support sustainability–good hiding power for increased PCR content
- Minimize cleaning costs–none of the problems associated with liquid colors
Processes
- PCR compounding
- Recyclers of PCR and PIR
- Profile extrusion processes
All FluxQF colors, whites and blacks are FDA food-grade approved.
