Was ist Masterbatch und wie wird es verwendet?

1. Streamlined Additive Integration

Masterbatch simplifies the incorporation of additives by enabling direct mixing of granules with the base polymer. This eliminates the need for specialized dosing equipment to handle minuscule quantities of powder and enhances accuracy in achieving the desired additive levels.

2. Consistent Product Quality

By improving the dispersion of pigments and additives, masterbatch ensures greater consistency in final products. This also leads to more stable production processes with reduced variability.

3. Safer Handling

Hazardous additives in their raw form can pose significant safety risks. Encapsulating these materials in a polymer resin reduces their potential harm, minimizes exposure, and often eliminates the need for extensive personal protective equipment (PPE).

4. Cleaner Production Environment

Masterbatch contributes to tidier production lines. Without powdered pigments or additives prone to spillage or static adhesion, production areas experience reduced contamination, quicker transitions between product batches, and more efficient workflows.

5. Extended Additive Stability

Encapsulation also protects additives from environmental factors like humidity, temperature fluctuations, and UV exposure, extending their shelf life and preserving functionality during storage.

6. Antimicrobial Integration

For applications requiring antimicrobial properties, masterbatch offers a seamless way to incorporate these technologies, ensuring consistent performance across a wide range of products.
