Rather than requiring a secondary process and equipment to coat the agricultural film, OnCap anti-fog concentrates are easy to handle and can be added at a film extrusion machine with no extra equipment required.

These bio-based materials can be processed on standard injection-molding machines and extruders and can be recycled in the same recycling channels as conventional fossil-based polymers.

Too often, however, the laser-sensitive pigments and colors incorporated into the polymers selected for these applications cannot keep pace with the higher machine speeds, leading to poor legibility and contrast.

• Replace lead while providing uniform shielding
performance
• Radiation shielding up to 140KeV
• Improve glasses design
• Compliance with Radiation Protection Regulation: Adult
eye exposure must be below 20 mSv per calendar year
• Conducted extensive testing to ensure comparable and
uniform shielding performance
• Improved geometric flexibility
• Lowered shielding component costs 30-50% by
eliminating machining and assembly steps (associated
with lead)
• Reduced weight of the glasses and enabled a more
ergonomic design
• Eliminated disposal concerns associated with lead
