Description of masterbatch
A plastic colorant made of a high proportion of pigments or additives and thermoplastic resins, which is well dispersed. The resin selected has a good wetting and dispersing effect on the colorant, and has good compatibility with the material to be colored. That is: pigment + carrier + additive = masterbatch.
The advantages of color masterbatches: environmentally friendly, non-toxic, odorless, smokeless. The surface of the product is smooth and shiny. The solid color is stable. Reducing costs can reduce the degradation of plastics due to repeated heating, reduce the essential properties of plastics, save the addition of other additives, reduce the environmental pollution of the plant, and achieve the national environmental protection effect.
Advantages of using masterbatches
The common coloring methods for thermoplastics are: colorants are mixed with natural resins and colorants, mixed and granulated into colored plastics, and then used in the molding process.
Dry powder coloring The powdery colorant is evenly mixed with the natural resin and used directly in the manufacture of plastic products.
Masterbatch coloring is the most commonly used plastic coloring method today. The colorant dispersed in the carrier is simply mixed with the natural color masterbatch resin and used to make plastic products.
Significant advantages of color masterbatches
Easy to use and no pollution to the molding environment.
Uniform and stable coloring, improving the quality of plastic parts.
It is easy to measure and can be applied to a highly automated molding production system.
Coloring, anti-aging agent, anti-static agent, etc. can be combined into one side to make multi-functional masterbatch for easy use.
