Mackadet® OPR-2 is cold processable, offering a much better whitening performance than standard synthetic acrylates, and it vastly improves the colour of dyes – helping you reduce the amount of dye needed in your formulations.

The morphology of Mackadet® OPR-2 is different from a pearlescent agent, making it a more effective opacifier:
