EuroWire – May 2007

127

Two new series of colour concentrates for use with a wide

range of PVC and polyolefin compounds used in the wire and

cable industry have been launched by Teknor.

The new ranges consist of 16 colours for PVC and 10

Munsell® colours for polyethylene, and comply with the RoHS

requirements specified by the European Union, according to

supplier Teknor Color Company, USA.

As applied to pigments used in colour concentrates,

RoHS regulations restrict the use of lead-, cadmium-, and

chromium-containing substances.

“These new concentrates have been formulated with

pigments that comply with RoHS regulations yet provide

the same colouring efficiency and electrical performance

obtained with standard concentrates,” said Anne Upton, wire

and cable market manager.

“They

make

it

possible for wire

industry manufac-

turers

in

the

Americas to serve

customers in Europe

as well as to meet

growing restrictions

on the use of certain

metal-containing

compounds in the

domestic market.”

Both

series

are

available in bead

form, except for

PVC black, which

is in dice form. The

16 colours of the

concentrates for use

with PVC are aqua,

black, blue, dark

blue, brown, dark

brown, grey, green,

light green, orange,

pink, purple, red,

dark red, white and

yellow.

The carrier resin for

these concentrates

is lead stabiliser-

free PVC.

The 10 Munsell

colours

for

use

with PE and TPEs are black, blue, brown, grey, green, orange,

purple, red, white and yellow.
