Optical Brighteners

  • Enhanced whiteness and brightness: Optical brighteners, also known as fluorescent whitening agents, are additives that improve the appearance of plastic products by increasing their whiteness and brightness.
  • UV light absorption and emission: These compounds absorb ultraviolet (UV) light and re-emit it as visible blue light, which enhances the perceived brightness of the material.
  • Uniform dispersion: Optical brighteners ensure uniform dispersion within the polymer matrix, resulting in consistent whiteness enhancement across the product.
  • Customizable formulations: Manufacturers can tailor optical brightener formulations to achieve desired levels of whiteness and brightness in plastic materials, meeting specific customer requirements.
  • Applications in various industries: Optical brighteners are widely used in industries such as packaging, textiles, detergents, paper, and plastics, where bright, white appearance is desirable.
