What Is UV Masterbatch? A Guide to Its Role in Plastic Packaging

UV Masterbatch is an additive that is used in the plastic packaging industry to protect plastics from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation. It is added to plastic packaging materials during manufacturing processes to absorb or block the UV radiation from the sun. This prevents the plastic from degrading when exposed to sunlight for long periods. Bajaj Plast Pvt Ltd, one of India’s leading manufacturers of flexible intermediate bulk containers, is committed to offering bespoke UV Masterbatch solutions that would meet the needs and requirements of the industry. Our products offer excellent UV protection for plastics and are highly used in the plastic packaging industry. UV Masterbatch finds its application across various industries that require high-durability packaging solutions. In this blog, you will get to know about everything regarding UV Masterbatch and its role and applications in the plastic packaging industry.

How UV Rays affect plastic packaging

Plastics when exposed to sunlight undergo a process known as photodegradation that leads to the loss of colour, strength and flexibility. UV rays break down the molecular structure of the plastics leading to discolouration and cracks. The need for UV protection arises to prevent damage and loss of quality in these plastic packaging products. For industries that require storing plastic products or transporting them, this becomes even more essential. Without UV protection, the contents stored in these plastic containers are also at risk due to compromised structural integrity.

What is UV Masterbatch made of?

UV masterbatch is a composite additive that includes UV stabilisers and UV absorbers. These components work together to either absorb harmful UV radiation or neutralise the degradation effect. They provide high levels of UV protection, thereby extending the product’s shelf life and durability.

Applications of UV Masterbatch in Plastic Packaging

Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (FIBCs)

Industrial packaging often involves the storage and transportation of goods from one place to another. UV masterbatch significantly extends the lifespan of plastic packaging exposed to the sun. Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers, also referred to as bulk bags, are used to store and transport materials in bulk such as grains, chemicals and fertilisers. These flexible intermediate bulk containers are frequently left outdoors, which exposes them to harmful UV radiation. UV-stabilised flexible intermediate bulk containers help to extend the shelf life of products and thereby preserve the safety of stored contents.

Agricultural Films

In the agricultural field, UV-stabilised films help protect crops from damage from excessive UV radiation. UV masterbatch is also needed for greenhouse construction.

Construction materials

Many construction materials are often stored outside and require strong protection from severe temperatures. UV-stabilised packaging, enhanced with UV masterbatch is highly effective in such industries for shielding the products from getting destroyed.

Consumer goods

Consumer goods like outdoor furniture, gardening equipment and similar items need packaging that safeguards the material to maintain the appearance and quality. UV Masterbatch again plays a vital role in enhancing the functional and visible appeal of day-to-day consumer products.
