AVL bronze paste grades are suitable for :

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

IMPORTANT NOTE

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.
