Plastics Industry: Master Batch and Compounding

AVL aluminium paste grades for the plastic industry are suitable for the following applications :

  • master batch for ABS, HDPE, LDPE and polyolefine products
  • injection moulding
  • blow moulding

Important Notes: ME Code Stands for Pharmaceutically Approved Paraffin Oil

The standard AVL-grades will best retain their metallic shine when the shortest possible extrusion and heat exposure are used in the process.
The temperature during the application should be as low as possible in order to retain optimal metallic effects.
