“MONOSILVER” ALUMINIUM EFFECT PIGMENTS FOR PLASTICS

MPD’s range of “Silver Dollar” and “Cornflake” aluminium effect pigments are marketed in conjunction with our new manufacturing partners. Our partners have four manufacturing plants giving them a production capacity of over 4000 tonnes of aluminium pigments per annum; as well as excellent research and development facilities. This allows them to claim to be the most technically advanced aluminium pigment manufacturer in Asia. The range of pelletised products have been designed to offer the plastics compounding market a technically competent and commercially attractive alternative source of supply.

Both MPD and its manufacturing partners have been awarded ISO9001: 2000, with MPD's manufacturing partners also having received ISO 14001 accreditation.

"MONOSILVER” PRODUCT RANGE:

The range consists of two types of products. Aluminium “Silver Dollar” products are manufactured by using highly polished disks of aluminium powder that give the brightest glitter effects. “Cornflake” products offer far greater opacity in comparison and are suitable for bright lustre effects.

PRODUCT FORM & COMPATIBILITY:

Standard products in our “Silver Dollar” range are produced in a pellet form with 70% aluminium content. An 80% version can be manufactured upon request. Products in the “Cornflake” range offer a choice of 70%, 80% or a highly cost effective 95% strength pigment. The carrier system in all products gives excellent compatibility in all major thermoplastic polymers.

PACKAGING:

Most pellet products are packaged in 25kg polyethylene valve sacks contained in its own individual carton, apart from MPD1095-AM1and MPD1080-AM1 which are packaged in 20kg metal drums.

FOOD CONTRACT AND TOY APPROVAL:

All products in the range conform to all major environmental, food contact and toy regulations. Further details are available.

“CORNFLAKE” PRODUCT RANGE:

These pellet products are most suitable for applications where a bright silver lustre effect is needed at a competitive price.

The MPD1095-AM1 is a 95% aluminium pellet product which due to the high pigment loading provides lower colouring costs than the lower strength pigments. This pigment therefore gives excellent strength and opacity for injection moulding applications, but also offers outstanding dispersion characteristics, making it suitable for high quality film applications.
