ColorMatrix's Joule™ range of additives optimise heat uptake of preforms during secondary blowing with minimal impact on colour and clarity. This speeds up the preform blowing process and reduces energy requirements.
Joule™ Technology
During the bottle production process, heat is transferred to the preform by infra-red (IR) radiation. Joule™ re-heat additives enhance the way the PET resin absorbs IR radiation, resulting in improved temperature distribution across the body of the preform and better polymer distribution across the bottle's body.
They help to achieve a more consistent blowing performance, faster throughput and, through more efficient utilization of the IR radiation in the process, reduced energy requirements.
Unlike traditional black body absorbers, Joule™ re-heat additives have a minimal impact on resin colour and clarity.
