Coloring
Versaflex® OM 3060-1 can use a variety of color concentrates. The type of color concentrates most suitable for the application are dependent upon the grade and the specific substrate materials, including color concentrate and filler levels. It is therefore advisable to contact your GLS Technical Representative to discuss your particular application. It should be noted that some color concentrates may affect adhesion to the substrate, resulting in decreased peel strength. Concentrates based on PVC should not be used. The final determination of color concentrate suitable should be determined by customer trials.
Purging
Purge thoroughly before and after use of this product with a low flow (0.5-2.5 MFR) polyethylene (PE) or polypropolene (PP).
Regrind
Versaflex® OM 3060-1 can use regrind up to 20% with minimal property losses, provided that the regrind is free of contamination. To minimize losses during molding, the melt temperature should remain as low as possible. The final determination of regrind effectiveness should be determined by the customer.
