Optical brightener agent (commonly referred to as"fluorescent whitening agent ") is a relatively commonly usedingredient in the plastics industry. They have a high ability to absorbultraviolet and ultraviolet light, converting the absorbed light energy intovisible light waves that range in color from blue to violet. They emit light,so they are also called luminescents.

The use of optical bleaches significantly improves theappearance and color of the product because:

  • Helps the   product to be less discolored (especially when the product uses scrap)

  • Make colors brighter, more vibrant.
