Lumicolor Red Use Case: High Brightness Fluorescent 3D Filament
"High brightness fluorescent × 3D filament" "Glowing red" with high brightness and low additives that does not compromise the transparency of high-performance bioengineering plastics.
"The higher the functionality of the resin, the more its original physical properties are compromised by coloring..." Our fluorescent dye 'Lumicolor Red' solves such challenges. As a case study, we produced 3D filaments using high-performance bioengineering plastics (such as PC-based bioplastics). With an extremely low addition amount of just 0.1wt%, we achieved a vivid fluorescent color with excellent visibility while maximizing the material's inherent properties of "high transparency," "impact resistance," "heat resistance," and "flame retardancy." Since it has minimal yellowing and maintains clear coloration even under harsh conditions equivalent to PC resin, it can be widely applied from improving the visibility of prototype parts to actual machine components. This case study involves 3D filaments, but we also offer the dye alone and can accommodate masterbatch solutions for the resins you use. Please feel free to consult with us. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
basic information
**Features** ■ Outstanding color development and transparency coexist: High color development is possible while utilizing the material's transparency with an addition of 0.1wt%. ■ Minimization of impact on physical properties: Due to the low addition amount, it is easier to maintain the inherent heat resistance and strength of the resin. ■ Excellent processability: Minimal thermal decomposition and yellowing during processing, achieving stable color reproducibility. ■ Wide range of applications: In addition to 3D filaments, also suitable for injection molding, films, optical components, etc. ■ Filament diameter: 1.75Φ **Examples of Compatible Resins** High-performance bioengineering plastics (such as PC-based bioplastics) Polycarbonate (PC) Other engineering plastics where transparency is required.
