K2025 | EXHIBITION REVIEW
Orange 68) is also designed for high-voltage and other engineering plastic components like housings of outdoor power tools. It has good weather resistance and durability, so it suited to long-lasting outdoor and safety-relevant applications, especially when exposed to UV and other extreme conditions. Its robust properties ensure that parts maintain their safety-critical orange coloration. The use of technical plastics in high-tech applications requires pigments with high heat stability. The Colortherm brand features a range of synthetic red iron oxide pigments that provide better thermal stability than comparable pigments as they are made using the proprietary Laux process, in which the pigments are heated to 800°C. As a result, the micronised pigments show no visible colour shift even at high application temperatures and can be processed without problems at over 300°C. �

Modern Dispersions Inc (MDI) highlighted a range of conductive and graphite masterbatches that can raise the performance of compound solutions. The conductive masterbatches are designed for injection-moulded PP parts where electrostatic dissipative (ESD) properties are required. They are incorporated at 50-60% loading levels. “These conductive masterbatches are designed in response to customer demands and complement

our existing range of products,” said Jan Kozma, vice president of sales and marketing at MDI. MDI is also producing a
range of compounds for bipolar plates in energy storage applications, and has developed new graphite masterbatches for use in thermal management applications such as expandable polystyrene (EPS) insulation foams.
