Over the decades, the use of plastic has diversified across the sectors. Extensive use of plastic is taking place from manufacturing packaging materials, bottles, car parts, telecommunication accessories, and other everyday essential products. The use of plastic products has entrenched in modern life deeply.
There are increasing pressure and demand for plastic products with high aesthetic valuable, physical properties, and functionalities in the market. Manufacturers are using masterbatches and additives to insert the required features to end products and enhance the production rate.
Some of the application of masterbatches and additives in industries:
Impart desired colours
Use of masterbatch can add the desired colours in the plastic products. Hundreds of colour options are available with top manufacturers to give a delightful appearance to customers in the product. In short, colour masterbatches help to increase the aesthetic values of the plastics using in the manufacturing process.
For instance, the use of polypropylene fibre masterbatch enhances the colour strength, durability, filterability, spinning, dilutability and dispersibility of polymers - PE, PP, PBT, PET, and PA.
Durability and strength
In addition to imparting colours, masterbatches additives are instrumental in increasing the durability improving the tensile strength, flexural strength, and hardness of the polymer. It alters the mechanical properties to meet many application standards.
For instance, the addition PPR pipe masterbatch improves the quality of polypropylene random copolymer (PP-R) pipes to resist high pressure, heat, and cold condition making them a natural choice in cold and hot water transportation across countries.
Aid in the manufacturing process
Masterbatches and additives are designed to fit in hi-tech manufacturing processes to get superior end products. Many masterbatches enhance the processability of plastics by increasing melt flow acting as an internal lubricant lowering the viscosity and heat dissipation.
Moreover, non-woven polypropylene masterbatches are used with resins to change colours, better loading, stiffness, and a controlling manufacturing process. In short, masterbatches can be of immense help to process the raw polymers economically.
Similarly, you can find colour masterbatches and additives from Mg-polyblends for many industrial applications like oxidants, stabilisers, impact modifier, filler, blowing agent, fragrances, antimicrobial, anti-counterfeiting, and heat stabilisers among others in the manufacturing process.
Mg-polyblends is a renowned company producing high-grade colour masterbatches and additives in India since 1994. Contact them to get more information.
