Masterbatch is a solid or liquid additive used in plastic/polymer products to impart colour and numerous physical properties based on the specific need of the user. It is a concentrated mix of pigments and additives which is encapsulated through a heating process, cooled, and cut into small granular blocks. These products come with different features such as Colour, Antioxidant, Fire-retardant, Anti-fog, Rodent repellent, UV resistance, and so forth. It is the most popular means of adding specific properties to any plastic/polymer product compared to fully compounded products since it is more economical and also provides more options to the manufacturer. Masterbatches have excellent coverage strength and dispersion which allows them to meet any end-user applications. It also ensures that the polymers are protected from the changes undergone as a result of heat and chemicals during their production and use. Thus, increasing the yield of the product and enabling the production of plastic in different forms and features. Some of the usage and benefits of masterbatchare:
- Excellent dyeing strength
- Improved mechanical properties for better endurance and performance
- Provides a wide range of add-on properties specific to the requirement
- Eliminates hazardous properties of the polymer and makes it safer for use
- Significant reduction in cost while manufacturing
- Improved product consistency and stability
