Difference between color masterbatch and filled masterbatch
Many people think that color masterbatch and filler masterbatch are the same kind of substance, both sides can be applied interchangeably, without much difference in effect, but in fact it is very incorrect to think so. Color masterbatch and filler masterbatch have a wide range of applications in plastic products, but their roles and effects are different.
Color masterbatch is a kind of aggregate made by uniformly loading ultra-long amount of pigments or dyes into the resin. It is mainly used for color mixing, which can make plastic products present different colors. Its carrier resin usually adopts polyethylene or polypropylene, which is characterized by good dispersion, strong oxygen resistance and strong aging resistance. Advantages of color masterbatches include ease of use, energy saving, efficiency improvement, waste reduction, etc.
Characteristics of commonly used color masterbatches: ordinary carbon black polyethylene resin as a carrier, through the high temperature and dense training. Ordinary carbon black adaptable, easy to evacuate, practical for general resin, blown film, wire, pipe, plastic, plastic, wire drawing, etc..
Filler masterbatch is in the plastic processing and molding process, in order to operate the convenience of the various additives needed, fillers and a small amount of carrier resin first mixed and blended, the resulting granules, powders called masterbatch. It is mainly used for the addition of product color raw materials, the role is to reduce the cost, reduce the plastic. Filler masterbatch has the characteristics of good dispersion, strong anti-oxidation and anti-aging, large filling capacity, etc. It can strengthen the hardness, rigidity, compression and abrasion resistance of the filled products, and reduce the shrinkage of the products and the deformation caused by shrinkage.
Characteristics of filler masterbatch: It has the characteristics of good evacuation plasticization, strong anti-oxidation and anti-aging, and large filling quantity, etc. It can strengthen the hardness, rigidity, compression and abrasion resistance of the filled products and reduce the shrinkage of the products and the deformation caused by shrinkage, etc. It is practical for most of the plastics such as blown film, injection molding, pipe and sheet.
Commonly used color masterbatch and filler masterbatch can be used in plastic products, however, their roles are different, one is the main color, one is used for the addition of raw materials to the product color, the role of reducing the cost, reduce the plastic, which is where their differences.
Therefore, we must be clear about the difference between masterbatch and filler masterbatch, do not mix the two to use, or once the wrong is likely to cause dyeing failures and other conditions occur.
