HEUCOPLAST is a ready to use pigment preparation for the coloration of rigid PVC consisting of organic/inorganic pigments and PVC-powder.
As opposed to most powder colorants, the preparations show good flowability and do not show a tendency to dust therefore enabling easy dosing and handling. Even direct dosing at the extruder is possible since premixing is not necessary. The dosage depends, of course, on the final application and required color shades, but it is usually in the range of 0.2 to 1.0 parts per hundred.
The color shades of the HEUCOPLAST grades are in most cases customer-tailored matches which have been developed with respect to the individual PVC-compound properties.
Several HEUCOPLAST grades have been specially developed for the shading of white window profiles. They contain a reduced pigment loading, enabling accurate dosing of even very small amounts. Particularly for this purpose black, blue and violet HEUCOPLAST colors are available.
