Manufacturing of Mobile Phone Charging Cables in Vietnam
In the modern world of accessories, charging cables are no longer simply tools for transmitting electricity but have become fashion accessories that express personality. At factories such as… MyMy Technology Controlling the color of the cable sheath is a technical process that combines material chemistry and stringent aesthetic standards.
1. Control the color of the cable sheath: It's not just about color mixing.
To produce a luxurious moss-green or a vibrant red cable, the factory must tightly control the plastic resin mixing process:
- Virgin plastic granules:MyMy uses virgin TPE or PVC plastic, which results in more even, smooth, and deeper colors compared to recycled plastic.
- Masterbatch color system:Using specialized, heat-resistant pigments ensures that the color does not change or fade when passing through the extruder at temperatures close to 200°C.
- Uniformity:Control the extrusion speed and pressure to ensure uniform color from end to end of the cable, preventing "color bleeding" or white spots.
2. Why do charging cables fade or yellow?
Many users experience discoloration of their cables after a period of use. Engineers at MyMy Technology have identified the main causes:
- The effects of UV rays:Sunlight breaks down the chemical bonds in the color pigments, causing light-colored cables (white, pink, light blue) to age and turn yellow.
- Reactions to sweat and chemicals:The plastic casing can react with acids in sweat or cosmetics and perfumes, leading to localized discoloration.
- Thermal aging:High-power charging currents generate continuous heat, which can alter the plastic structure, causing the cable to become brittle and lose its original color.
3. Color trends in modern charging cable production
Colors are categorized to serve different target groups and purposes:
- Space Gray/Black:Neutral colors, colorfastness, resistance to stains, and heat resistance are the best trends, concealing scratches effectively.
- Blue – red – yellow:Bold colors are often used for braided cables, targeting young people or gaming enthusiasts (Gaming Gear).
- Pastel colors:Mint green, light purple, and pastel pink are trending colors for modern iPhone users, requiring a high level of sophistication in color coordination.
4. Custom color production for private label brands.
For partners looking to build their own brand, color is the most powerful brand identity weapon:
- Custom Color: MyMy Technology assists customers in precisely matching Pantone color codes, ensuring the cable is consistent with the company's brand identity.
- Colors and segments:We recommend darker color tones for the rugged cable segment and lighter, more subtle tones for the premium segment.
5. Common color defects and how to fix them at the factory.
In mass production, if not properly controlled, errors can occur:
- Color streaking error:The pigment particles did not dissolve completely. Solution: Use a modern thermostatic mixing system.
- Color Drift Error:The actual product color does not match the control sample. Solution: Check using a color spectrophotometer under a standard D65 light source.
