Colour measurement of foils, films and plastic plates
Is a film clear or milky, translucent, transparent or cloudy? The appearance of a film differs depending on the raw material, composition and intended use. Spectrophotometers can precisely determine the amount of light that is transmitted, absorbed or scattered. With measurement technology from HunterLab, deviations are detected quickly and costs are minimized. In stationary haze/colour measuring devices, samples of (technical) foils, films or plates are subjected to standard-compliant quality control, while foils on rolls are tested in real time using online/inline measuring devices.

Application example:
Today, a variety of films are produced for the packaging and coating industry, as well as for medical technology and building materials, e.g. thermoplastic polyurethane films (TPU films). The exact determination of the colour and the examination of the turbidity in the form of the Haz measurement according to ASTM D1003 is very important in development and quality management. Instrumental colour measurement in transmission is now the standard procedure for transparent films. Until now, however, haze measurement usually had to be carried out using a second device. HunterLab’s colour measurement offers the perfect solution for determining exact colour values and the haze value of film...
