What Is Pigments in Masterbatch?
Pigment masterbatch is a concentrated mixture of pigments or additives that are added to a polymer during the manufacturing process. It is a pre-dispersed blend of pigments or additives encapsulated in a carrier resin. Masterbatches are used to color plastic materials and improve their performance characteristics.
Pigment masterbatch finds applications in various industries due to its ability to enhance plastic materials. Here are some common applications
Coloring Masterbatches
One of the primary applications of pigment masterbatch is to color plastic resins. By incorporating the masterbatch into the polymer during processing, manufacturers can achieve consistent and vibrant colors in plastic products. Whether it’s a toy, packaging material, or automotive component, pigment masterbatch ensures uniform color distribution.
Cost-Effective Coloration
Instead of using expensive pre-colored resins, manufacturers can opt for natural or white polymers and then add pigment masterbatch as needed. This approach is more cost-effective and allows flexibility in color choices.
UV Stabilization
Some pigment masterbatches contain UV stabilizers that protect plastic products from UV radiation. These stabilizers help prevent color fading, degradation, and brittleness caused by exposure to sunlight.
Customization
BAJAJ create custom masterbatches tailored to specific requirements. Whether it’s a unique color shade, special effects (such as metallic or pearlescent finishes), or specific performance enhancements, masterbatches offer versatility.
Functional Additives
Beyond color, masterbatches can incorporate other functional additives
Antioxidant masterbatch
Provides protection against oxidation and extends the product’s lifespan
Antistatic masterbatch
Reduces static electricity buildup on plastic surfaces
Flame-retardant masterbatch
Enhances fire resistance in materials.
