Can Artemis pigments be used in plastics?
Yes. Our pigments can be used in any plastics technique: blow molding, casting, extruding, coating, injecting, and dipping. As an example, the method of use of our pigments in plastic extruding is as follows. The dry pigment goes in the hopper with all the other components at the beginning where it all gets mixed up by the rotating blade. Then the mix gets drawn into the extruder which melts the plastic pellets and mashes everything else into the plastic. This produces a gooey tube of colored molten plastic which goes into a mould.
