Masterbatch

Masterbatch (colour and additive concentrates)

A masterbatch is a granular concentrate with pigment or additive loaded at high level into a carrier polymer; dosed at 1–4% into the base polymer it adds colour, UV protection, antistatic or antioxidant performance. The carrier (PE, PP, PS, ABS) is matched to the base polymer. It eliminates handling powder pigment and keeps colour consistent batch to batch.
