Q1: What is the primary application of ECKART PCR212 Pigment?
A: ECKART PCR212 is a high-performance pearlescent pigment designed for use in demanding plastic applications, particularly polyolefins (e.g., PP and PE), engineering thermoplastics, and masterbatches where excellent heat stability, dispersion behavior, and optical clarity are required.
Q2: Is ECKART PCR212 suitable for food-contact plastics?
A: Yes — PCR212 is formulated to comply with global food-contact regulations for plastics, including FDA 21 CFR and EU Framework Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004. Its inert, non-leaching composition ensures suitability for indirect food-contact applications when used within recommended processing conditions and dosage ranges.
Q3: How should PCR212 be dispersed in polymer systems?
A: Optimal dispersion is achieved via high-shear compounding (e.g., twin-screw extrusion) at temperatures appropriate for the base polymer. Pre-mixing with carrier resin or using liquid carriers (e.g., mineral oil or polymer melts) prior to extrusion enhances uniformity. Avoid prolonged residence time at peak temperature to preserve luster and particle integrity.
Q4: What is the typical dosage range for PCR212 in plastic formulations?
A: Dosage depends on the desired visual effect and polymer matrix, but it is generally used at low concentrations — typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight — with most applications achieving optimal pearlescence between 0.3% and 1.2%.
