Masterbatch
Masterbatch
Masterbatch is a highly concentrated mixture of pigment (colorant) and/or additive used to impart color and/or functional properties to plastic raw materials. It was developed to eliminate the difficulties, contamination, and inhomogeneous distribution problems associated with the direct use of powder pigments or pure additives. Masterbatch is produced in granule form by intensively encapsulating pigments or additives within the main polymer (carrier) resin.
As Helco Petrokimya, we offer a wide portfolio of color, additive, and filler masterbatches sourced from the most reliable manufacturers in the global market, aiming to increase the efficiency of your plastic production processes and the quality of your final product.
Key Advantages
The use of masterbatch is a cornerstone of modern plastic production:
- Precise Coloration and Consistency: Ensures the same color tone is achieved in every production batch, preventing color fluctuations.
- Cost Efficiency: Due to high concentration, it yields effective results with low usage rates (1-5%), optimizing raw material costs.
- Clean and Easy Handling: Unlike powder pigments, it is in granule form, which ensures a clean production environment, easy dosing, and suitability for automation.
- Enhanced Performance: Not only imparts color but also adds technical properties such as UV resistance, flame retardancy, or antistatic features to the product through additive masterbatches.
