Masterbatch
What is Masterbatch?
Masterbatch is a concentrated mixture of pigments, chemicals and /or additives encapsulated within a carrier resin, designed for use in plastic manufacturing. It provides a convenient and efficient way to impart colour or enhance the properties of plastic products. By incorporating masterbatch in their extrusion process, plastic manufacturers can achieve consistent colour quality and add functional attributes such as UV resistance, flame retardancy, or improved strength. This process not only simplifies production but also ensures uniformity and as a result reduces the likelihood of defects during the production run. Masterbatch is extensively utilized across various industries, including packaging, consumer goods, textiles, medical and agricultural.
