Q: How quickly can you develop the colour?

A: For most of the colours, we can do it while you wait in our office.
     It largely depends upon the colour accuracy required.
     For accurate matching of unique colour, maxium time we take is 3 working days.



Q: What colouring method do you recommend?

A: Depends upon the application. Following are some rough guidelines:

      1) If polymer to be processed is less than 2 MT, Dry Colours are recommended for
           Olefinic Polymers in Injection Moulding

      2) For Blow Moulding and Extrusion, Colour Masterbatches are recommended. For
           Styrenics and Engineering Plastics, Colour Masterbatches are more suitable.Even
           for Olefinic Polymers where quantities are greater than 2 MT, MB is recommended.

      3) Liquid Colours are recommended where Fast Moulding Cycle poses problem of dispersion
           with other conventional colouring methods.

      4) Mass Colouration or Pre-Coloured Resins are offered in rare cases of difficult
           to colour engineering plastics.



Q: Can I combine several effects in one MB?

A: You can not only combine special effects but also any property enhancer or additive as you
     p may require.E.g. you may order for a Red Colour in Pearl Effect with UV Stabilizer and Anti-oxident.



Q: Are the colours you supply light fast?

A: Nobody can guarantee that the colours will never fade. However, if you inform us that you
     reqiure maximum light-fastness, we will select the colourants in such a way that it will have
     maximum light-fastness. We can incorporate UV Lgitht Stabilizer in the Masterbatch OR use colours
     with high inherent light fastness OR both.



Q: What happenes when you can not achieve the right colour?

A: If we can not achieve the right colour in our lab, we will come on your site and match it for you.



Q: What is a wetting agent?

A: To make the dry colouring process easier and to keep the environment clean, we offer this light
     mineral oil which can be distibuted on the surface of the polymer prior to addiing dry colour.
     This improves adhesion of pigments on the surface of the polymer resulting in lower dusting and
     better dispersion.



Q: What are the minimum quantities I can buy?

A: 1 Kg. for stock colours MB, Pigments and Liquid Colours. 25 Kg. for Custom Colours
     (upon payment of SOS) 100 Kg, for Custom Colours (At competitive prices) 1000 Kg. for
    Pre-Coloured Resin
