Improving IV for PET Packaging Applications
Improving intrinsic viscosity: Your path to superior, sustainable packaging
Giving rPET a second life
Maintaining intrinsic viscosity is a major concern when it comes to using rPET. The stresses of processing, heat, and shear can cause polymer chains to shorten, changing the integrity of the polymer. But through the addition of Holland Colours’ ViscoBoost, the polymer structure can be rebuilt, enabling it to meet the demands of your application once again.
And there's no special equipment required. ViscoBoost works with standard single and twin screw dosing equipment, incorporating at standard processing temperatures.
Suitable, safe and customizable
Available in a solid Holcomaster format, ViscoBoost helps improve the intrinsic viscosity of PET. Whether you’re creating drink bottles or food trays, you can rest assured that your product meets the most stringent food packaging safety qualifications.
You can use ViscoBoost as a standalone product or combine it with other Holland Colours colorants and additives. It fits your IV enhancing needs right out of the box.
