Masterbatch is a plastic colorant created by thoroughly dispersing a high concentration of pigments or additives into a thermoplastic resin-essentially: Pigment + Carrier + Additive = Masterbatch. While many manufacturing enterprises use masterbatch, many people have only a superficial understanding of it. We hope this information proves useful to your production operations!
Certain pigments can affect the flame-retardant properties of the finished product. If the masterbatch is intended for use in flame-retardant products, this requirement should be specified to the manufacturer.
