Laser transmissive polyamide pigmentation: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Colorant instability in high-performance polymers leads to thermal degradation and aesthetic defects during molding. Precise chemical formulation of the dye-matrix interface ensures color uniformity and structural integrity in finished articles.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Laser transmissive polyamide pigmentation?

Insufficient laser transmission clarity

(18)evidences

Incompatible polymer phases and multilayer interfaces lead to structural delamination and mechanical weakness. Improving bond integrity ensures durability in high-pressure tubular applications.

Thermal oxidative degradation

(17)evidences

Polyamide components lose mechanical integrity and structural stability when exposed to prolonged thermal stress. Preventing this failure mode ensures long-term reliability in demanding environments.

Insufficient laser energy penetration

(11)evidences

Weak bonding and delamination at the junction of dissimilar materials. Robust structural integrity in hybrid components requires overcoming mechanical failure at the polymer-metal boundary.

Insufficient laser energy transmission

(10)evidences

High temperatures required for polyamide processing cause polymer breakdown and loss of insulating properties. Preventing this degradation maintains structural integrity and electrical performance in demanding environments.
