Desiccants

Control, reduction or elimination of moisture enables effective processing of many plastics. Colortech desiccant concentrates and compounds lock in moisture, preventing unwanted effects such as splay in molding or voids/lensing in film or sheet extrusion. Processing materials with high mineral or filler levels, hygroscopic additives or pigments, and recycled plastics prone to having higher moisture content are all issues that call for a Colortech desiccant product. Colortech employs a full range of desiccant materials, at the highest loading possible, to address all types of moisture issues.
