More than just a fridge freezer: Clariant opens door to a new world of creativity
10/25/2011
Muttenz, October 19, 2011 - Clariant is opening the door to a world of creativity in design and functionality for household appliances; and what better way to demonstrate it than with a state-of-the-art fridge freezer at its Fakuma 2011 booth (Booth B2-2217).
Clariant's masterbatches and combibatches are being used increasingly in "fresh boxes", doors, the external appliance body, insides and shelving because of their efficiency focused and cost-effective response to manufacturers' challenges.
At Fakuma, visitors can explore cutting-edge possibilities in color and aesthetics, technical performance and protection features - all this alongside cost and material savings.
UV-protected brilliant whites & colors
Achieving a consistent color despite the combination of several different plastics such as PP, ABS and PS, on a fridge exterior and in the internal lining is a major challenge in color development. Clariant's expertise provides customers with a colored masterbatch that allows them to meet current styles for smooth lines and a high-gloss or matt finish. Clariant's broad palette of colors includes high-trend brilliant whites and grays for strong visual impact. Its pigments ensure easy, uniform dispersion within a masterbatch.
Clariant can integrate additives offering UV protection into its color masterbatches to create a combi-batch. This gives customers the added assurance of long-term light stability for visible areas where discoloration over time is not desired.
For transparent fresh boxes, where salad foodstuffs, or meat and cheese produce are stored, Clariant goes a step further than its standard range of solid transparent and translucent color masterbatches in blue, green or gray. The company's liquid masterbatches for use, for example, in polystyrene offer a major cost advantage. The desired uniform color intensity can be consistently reached with 0.5% colored liquid masterbatch as compared to 2% with a solid masterbatch.
Anti-microbial protection
Clariant's anti-microbial masterbatches can help to reduce the risk of bacterial or fungal growth fridge linings and fresh boxes against bacterial and fungal growth within the fridge.
Weight-saving for energy efficiency
HYDROCEROL® blowing agent from Clariant creates consistent, fine-particle foam with good insulation properties at a low quantities and at low injection pressure levels. This generates material cost savings for manufacturers without compromising on energy efficiency.
"Fridge freezers are far more complex than the average consumer realizes. And with new function requirements and design desires leading the way for new performance levels, manufacturers have many challenges to overcome in using plastics to cost-effectively achieve their goals. Clariant's masterbatches and combibatches are supporting customers in making consumer demands a reality. And what better way to convey this than through an interactive model for Fakuma visitors," comments Michael G. Thiessenhusen, Head of Marketing Europe, Clariant.

The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner." AND ENTERS UPON HIS PARENTAL RELATIONS TO LITTLE PETE SKIDMORE. "Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
