Packaging materials: UVA masterbatch

-- Packaging Digest, 7/1/2010 11:55:00 AM

The co.’s ultraviolet-light absorber (UVA) masterbatch for thin-gauge polyolefin films improves UV content protection. It contains a UV absorber system that screens UV light wavelengths from 280 to 380 nm, and is said to be more efficient than conventional UVAs, allowing it to be used at lower loadings and in thinner film gauges. The UVA masterbatch for thin gauge polyolefin films is designed to protect packaged contents from UV light, which affects packaged food and other light sensitive products, potentially causing discoloration, off-taste, odor, diminished nutritional value, or decreased product performance. Compared to conventional UVAs, the new masterbatch offers improved content protection for thin gauge film applications with fewer problems due to additive migration, the co. states.
