Silicone is a plastic additive that helps in enhancing
productivity and quality of products in the polymer processing industry.
The silicone masterbatch is found in a pellet form
which has an ultra-high molecular weight of polysiloxane or silicone gum.
The masterbatch is used in plastic processing to alter
mechanical properties like the coefficient of friction, abrasion resistance and
act as a lubricant for polymers. Here are the top usages of this additive in
the plastics processing industry:
l Increases the smoothness and gloss of the
plastic surface.
l Enhance the surface properties of plastic
products.
l Reduces the coefficient of friction in
printing and packaging solution.
l Enhance moldability of polymer resin for easy
plastic manufacturing.
l Increase the product's resistance to abrasion
and scratches.
l Improve flow and processability of polymer
resins.
l Reduce the clot and deposit in polymer resins
to make it soft.
l Increase output and production rate without
negligible defects of products.
l Reduce die pressure and torque in the
processing.
Thus, this additive is one of the most popular additives
in the plastics processing industry to make packaging, printing, and other
products. The top products obtained in processing polymers with this additive
in the industry are:
l Products related to injection moulding.
l Bottles and boxes of HDPE
l Packaging films of PP.
l BOPET film
l Duct and wires of HDPE.
l Silicone core pipes.
l Interiors of automotive accessories.
l Television LCD monitor
l PET sheet.
l Nylon fishing lines
l And other products.
Hence, the industrial applications of silicone
masterbatch are many. However, a company needs to obtain the best additive
according to requirement and compatibility of polymer resins. Otherwise, there
will be severe flaws in the processing and products after yielding.
