Masterbatch is a concentrated mixture of pigments or additives dispersed in a plastic carrier resin, used to color or enhance plastic materials.
🔹 Key Functions
Adds color to plastic (uniform shade)
Improves properties (UV resistance, flame retardant, etc.)
Ensures consistent quality
🔹 Types of Masterbatch
Color Masterbatch → for coloring plastics
Black Masterbatch → for black color & UV protection
White Masterbatch → for opacity & brightness
Additive Masterbatch → improves properties (UV, anti-static, etc.)
