Both proposed hooks require editing for grammatical issues. Suggest the following: "... that plastic colorants can come in the forms of dyes or pigments?" and "... that the type of plastic colorant used depends on the type of plastic being colored?" Neither is particularly interesting, though. --Khajidha (talk) 14:36, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Symbol delete vote.svg Marking for closure. Citations are still required, and, who has been pinged twice but not responded (despite continuing to make edits elsewhere), appears to have abandoned the nomination. Unless wants to resolve the citation issues, this nomination is dead. --Usernameunique (talk) 00:20, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
