Why don't many companies make universal masterbatches?
The vast majority of regular masterbatch companies in the world generally do not produce universal masterbatches.
There are many disadvantages of universal masterbatches. In fact, the 'universal' range of universal masterbatches is very narrow, and the technical indicators and economic benefits are also poor, which are specifically manifested in:
1. The prediction of coloring effect is poor
The color master is used for coloring, and the pigment of the universal color master will show different colors in different plastics, so the prediction of the coloring effect is poor.
2. Affect other properties of plastic products
In particular, it affects the strength, and the product is easy to deform and distort, which is more obvious for engineering plastics.
3. High cost
In order to be able to 'universal', the color master is often selected with a higher heat resistance grade, resulting in waste.
In addition to coloring, can the master color have flame retardant, brightening, anti-static, anti-oxidation, anti-ultraviolet and other functions?
The masterbatch can have some of these functions at the same time, if the factory requests this.
Sometimes, although the customer does not request, the color parent company will also suggest that the user add some additives according to the needs of the product, such as adding certain additives in the color master, such as brightening agents. Of course, this will increase the cost of the product.
