Q1: What types of polymer systems is this color paste compatible with?
A: Hostatint Green A-GMB 100-ST VP 5326 is specifically formulated for use in polyolefin-based systems, including PP and HDPE, and demonstrates good compatibility in thermoplastic elastomers and certain engineering plastics. It is not recommended for highly polar or hydrophilic polymers such as PET or PA without prior compatibility testing.
Q2: Is this product suitable for food-contact applications?
A: This grade is designed for non-food-contact industrial applications. For food-contact use, Clariant offers dedicated food-compliant Hostatint grades—please consult your Clariant representative to identify the appropriate certified variant and confirm regulatory suitability for your specific end-use and jurisdiction.
Q3: How should this color paste be incorporated into a polymer melt process?
A: The paste is typically introduced via gravimetric or volumetric dosing directly into the extruder feed throat or side feeder. Good dispersion is achieved under standard melt processing conditions; avoid excessive residence time at elevated temperatures to maintain color stability and pigment integrity.
Q4: Does this color paste require drying before use?
A: No—Hostatint Green A-GMB 100-ST VP 5326 is supplied as a ready-to-use paste and does not require pre-drying. However, it should be stored in sealed containers at moderate temperatures to prevent surface skinning or viscosity changes due to solvent evaporation.
