ColorMatrix's Eze™ range of processing additives help drive down operational costs by increasing productivity in polymer processing.

Eze™ Technology
Following de-molding, static charges can often build up on the surface of preforms and bottles affecting the frictional behaviour of the part. ColorMatrix's Eze™ process aids migrate to the surface of the preform or bottle helping to minimise the co-efficient of friction by reducing the surface energy of the polymer. This results in improved container aesthetics, smoother processing and a much faster rate of product throughput.

Benefits of ColorMatrix's Eze™ Additives
In addition to facilitating the injection and blow molding processes, the Eze™ range offers the following benefits:

Reduced handling and transportation costs, by improved preform packing density (up to 20%, depending on preform geometry)
Improved blow-mould release for faster cycle times and higher production rates in both hot-fill and complex bottles designs
Smoother preform ejection for improved preform production cycle efficiency
Reduced defects due to poor mould release
Improved preforms scratch resistance
Improved preform line-up allowing for a reduction in blowing line jams
Smoother bottle conveyance to filling lines
Increase in consistency of sleeves and closures application to containers
Elimination of secondary spray or dip processes and associated contamination risks
