Rocket Red™ GPL-13 by DayGlo Color is a supercharged high-performance fluorescent colorant developed especially for use in polyolefins. It is completely formaldehyde-free and can be produced continuously at a high-speed with minimum downtime. Exhibits superior processing properties, virtually eliminates the problem of plate-out at the blow-pin and in the mold cavity. Concentrated and masterbatch formulations can be simplified with the elimination of expensive or hard to handle additives for controlling plate-out and dispersion. Provides dust-free performance from a super high strength pill and cleanest, brightest fluorescent products. Designed for blow molding and injection molding. Rocket Red™ GPL-13 is used at full strength for lowest cost in use or as a replacement for melt-in colorants for custom color matches. Rocket Red™ A-13-N by DayGlo Color is a thermoplastic, fluorescent pigment. It performs well in a system based on aliphatic and some aromatic hydrocarbons. Rocket Red™ A-13-N is usable in water systems where prolonged shelf life is not required. Recommended for a wide range of applications where resistance to strong solvents is not required. Suitable for use in vinyl plastisols and organisols. The higher the pigment concentration, the better the light-fastness. The light-fastness of fluorescent pigment can be influenced by plasticizers, stabilizers and other additives. Rocket Red™ AX-13-5 by DayGlo Color is a thermoplastic, fluorescent pigment. It performs well in a system based on aliphatic and some aromatic hydrocarbons. Rocket Red™ AX-13-5 is usable in water systems where prolonged shelf life is not required. Recommended for a wide range of applications where resistance to strong solvents is not required. Suitable for use in vinyl plastisols and organisols. The higher the pigment concentration, the better the light-fastness. The light-fastness of fluorescent pigment can be influenced by plasticizers, stabilizers and other additives. Rocket Red™ NX-13C by DayGlo Color is a solid solution of fluorescent dyes in a thermoplastic polyamide resin. Exhibits low blow pin plate-out and permit high pigment loading in concentrates. It is essential that the minimum processing temperature is reached to 190°C and the pigment is completely melted and evenly distributed throughout the plastic. This ensures complete color development when this pigment is incorporated into plastic resins. The high tinctorial strength of the pigment permits higher amounts of TiO<sub>2</sub> to be added for opacity while maintaining the fluorescent effect. Rocket Red™ NX-13C is used in polyethylene blow molded containers and other thin film applications. Rocket Red™ Z-13-3 by DayGlo Color is a solid solution of fluorescent dyes in a thermoplastic polyamide resin. Offers bright shades, good heat stability and tinctorial strength. To ensure complete development of the fluorescent color effect, the pigment must be completely melted and evenly distributed throughout the plastic system. The recommended minimum processing temperature for Rocket Red™ Z-13-3 is 370°F (190°C). Rocket Red™ VC-13 by DayGlo Color is a translucent vinyl-based pigment showing exceptional brightness, excellent heat stability and high tinctorial strength. Suitable for rigid and plasticized PVC. Recommended for calendered, extruded and injection molded vinyl. For injection molding, the pigment should be converted into pellet form in order to minimize sifting, packing and potential burn-out. It do not cause build-up on calendering or two roll mill equipment and have a low degree of plate-out on metal surfaces of processing equipment. The typical use rate is 1-3% pigment by weight. It does not possess any lead or cadmium containing stabilizer. Rocket Red™ VC-13 is designed for maximum transparency and offers excellent edge glow. For opacity, TiO<sub>2</sub> can be added at a ratio of 3:1 - VC-Pigment:TiO<sub>2</sub>. It displays no color change after a heat history of 20 minutes at 350°F (175°C) on a two roll mill. Rocket Red™ ZQ-13 by DayGlo Color is a solid solution of fluorescent dyes in a thermoplastic modified polyamide resin. Provides lower mold plate-out, increased plastic compatibility, required low processing temperatures and exhibits larger particle size to reduce dusting. Rocket Red™ ZQ-13 shows excellent heat stability and the maximum recommended processing temperature is 575°F. To ensure complete color development when incorporating the pigment into plastic resins, it is essential the minimum processing temperature of 350°F (175°C) is reached in order to completely melt and evenly distribute the pigment throughout the plastic.
