Here are some frequently asked questions (FAQs) regarding masterbatches
Masterbatch is a pellet form of plastic with concentrated mixture of pigments, additives, or other ingredients that are dispersed in a carrier resin. It is used to impart color or enhance properties in plastics during the manufacturing process.
Masterbatches are added to the base resin during the processing of plastics. They are typically in pellet form and are thoroughly mixed with the base resin before shaping into final products through processes like extrusion, injection molding, or blow molding.
Masterbatches offer several advantages including precise color matching, improved processing efficiency, better dispersion of additives, reduced material waste, and cost-effectiveness compared to direct addition of pigments or additives.
There are various types of masterbatches catering to different needs such as color
masterbatches for adding color, additive masterbatches for enhancing properties like UV
resistance or flame retardancy, and specialty masterbatches for specific applications like food
packaging or medical devices.

Consistent Quality: Ensures uniform distribution of color and additives.
Cost-Effective: Reduces the need for large inventories of colored or additive-laden resins.
Ease of Use: Simplifies the production process with ready-to-use granules.
Enhanced Properties: Adds desired properties like UV resistance, flame retardancy, etc., to the plastic.
Recent innovations include masterbatches for biodegradable plastics, antimicrobial properties, and enhanced recyclability.
