Matching color in the plastics industry can be a time-consuming and challenging task. A spectrophotometer combined with color-matching software can improve color matching performance; reduce the number of corrections, matching time and wasted material; and help optimize pigment loading to strike a balance between coloring requirements and cost. In this webinar, the most common color-matching strategies will be compared, highlighting the primary advantages and disadvantages of each. Overviews of several common color-matching applications in the plastics industry will be described, including compounding, masterbatch and matching with recycled plastics. Finally, Colibri color match software's general workflow will be introduced.
