Consumers have been looking for new ways to reduce scratches and scuffs on plastic surfaces. Ampacet’s ScratchShield™ masterbatch, added during the molding process, exceeds customer expectations for improved aesthetics and value.
Used in a Range of PET Packaging
Ampacet offers a wide range of
ScratchShield™ additives, each one formulated for a specific resin, such as PP, ABS, PET, PE, Polystyrene, and HDPE.
These performance additives make them ideal for end-use applications such as appliances, home furnishings, luggage, automotive parts, electronic devices as well as preforms, bottles, and a range of PET packaging, without the need to apply a surface coating.
ScratchShield™ significantly improves the demolding of preforms and also helps converters to reduce scrap, cleanup and the cost associated with lubricant sprays. Other ScratchShield™ masterbatches are perfect for translucent color and opaque blow-molded bottles at both the preform stage and in blown bottles.
