1.Colour masterbatches provide better dispersion of pigments in products
2.Colour masterbatches are aggregates of pigments that have been produced by evenly loading an extraordinary amount of pigment into a resin.
The pigments must be refined during the production of masterbatches to improve their dispersion and colouring power. The carrier of the special masterbatch is the same as the plastic variety of the product and has a good match. The pigment particles are well dispersed in the plastic after heating and melting.
3.Colour masterbatches are good for maintaining the chemical stability of the pigments.
When pigments are used directly, they will absorb water and oxidise due to their direct contact with air during storage and use, whereas when made into masterbatches, the resin carrier isolates the pigments from air and moisture, so that the quality of the pigments remains unchanged over time.
4.Colour masterbatches ensure the stability of the colour of the product.
The colour masterbatch particles are similar to the resin particles, so it is more convenient and accurate to measure, and they will not stick to the container when mixing, and the mixing with the resin is more even, so it can ensure the stability of the added quantity, thus ensuring the stability of the colour of the products.
5.Protection of the operator's health.
The pigments are generally in powder form and are easily flown when added and mixed, which will affect the health of the operator when inhaled by the human body.
6.Keeps the environment clean and does not stain the utensils.
7.Simple process, easy colour transfer, saving time and raw materials.
As the pigments are in direct contact with air during storage and use, they will absorb moisture, oxidise and agglomerate, and their direct use will cause colour spots on the surface of plastic products, darken the colour and make the colour fade easily. In contrast, the masterbatches are mechanically processed during the production process to refine the pigments and fully mix the pigments with the resin carrier and dispersant, so that the pigments are isolated from air and moisture, thus enhancing the weather resistance of the pigments, improving the dispersion and colouring power of the pigments and brightening the colour phase.
As the masterbatches are similar in shape to the resin particles, they are easier and more accurate to measure and do not adhere to the container when mixing, thus saving time in cleaning the container and the machine as well as the raw material used to clean the machine.
