Mocom will be emphasising its latest technical compound developments for lighting and light- weight applications, as well as its newest sustain- able introductions. The company’s Eco portfolio and compounds for lightweight applications used primarily in e-mobility will head up the display. This includes grades based on post consumer (PCR) and post-industrial recyclates (PIR), which are offered under the Altech Eco and Alfater XL Eco names, and compounds. The latest addition to the Altech Eco line is a high-impact PA6 with 30% glass fibres that consists of up to 51% post industrial recyclate. It offers a 67% GWP reduction over virgin grades without sacrificing performance, the company says. �

Sikora will demonstrate its Purity Scanner Ad- vanced system for inline inspection and sorting of plastic materials. In addition to optical 25 µm high-resolution cameras, which detect black specks and discolorations, the system also uses an X-ray camera to ensure detection of metallic contamina- tion. The company says the interaction of reliable detection and intelligent sorting ensures high material quality and contributes to cost-efficient production. Visitors to the company’s stand can put the technology to the test on the company’s labora- tory-scale Purity Concept V system. Capable of detecting black and coloured contamination from 50 µm, as well as discolorations, the system can be used as a quality control tool. �

Tosaf will present the latest additions to its portfolio of additive and colour masterbatches, including a new laser additive family suitable for making transparent parts without affecting optical properties. The new laser marking products are said to
provide contour-sharp, high-contrast markings on thermoplastics that typically show poor or no colour change during laser marking, as well as on compounds with fillers such as calcium carbonate, talcum, titanium dioxide or carbon black. Depend- ing on the substrate, marking colours ranging from white to grey to black are possible. Tosaf will also show its latest universally applica- ble colour masterbatch carrier system. �
