Clariant, a specialty chemical manufacturer, will launch MEVOPUR®-LQ series of colorant and additive solutions that combine MEVOPUR's “controllable, consistent, and compliant” formulation with the convenience of Clariant `s HiFormer® liquid color oil technology One.
The first products include a transparent amber colored oil, suitable for polyethylene terephthalate (PET and PFTG) materials mainly used for pharmaceutical packaging, and a colored oil specially developed for liquid silicone rubber (LSR). The biggest advantage of this series of color oils is that the raw material ingredients used in color oil formulas have been evaluated by the United States Pharmacopoeia, Part 87 and 88, ISO10993 and other relevant industry standards, which can help reduce Risk of interaction.
MEVOPUR-LQ color oil is specially developed for silicone rubber elastomers. Such materials are ideal for medical and health applications and are widely used in sealing, wound care, tubing, catheters, and recent personal monitoring equipment. They have good durability and flexibility, and most of the tested polymers have good biocompatibility and low sensitization.
