In the variety of development, China's masterbatch manufacturers have developed a fiber masterbatch, film masterbatch, wire and cable with masterbatch, polyolefin masterbatch, PVC masterbatch, injection products with color masterbatch grain. The future masterbatch will be towards the multi-functional, high color content and high-tech content direction, mainly in the following areas:
① the development of multi-functional masterbatch
Plastic or chemical fiber products often need products at the same time with a variety of performance, coloring and other functions into one masterbatch, to improve the performance of plastic or chemical fiber products, simplify its production process of great significance. Multi-functional masterbatch includes: used in coal products, coloring, flame retardant, anti-static multi-functional masterbatch, used in chemical fiber fabric coloring, antibacterial, thermal insulation, conductive masterbatch, used in plastic products, coloring, Tablets and so on.
② high-performance engineering plastics, thermoplastic elastomer masterbatch development
China's high-performance engineering plastics and thermoplastic elastomers developed rapidly, such as thermoplastic fluorine plastic and thermoplastic polyurethane, with the adaptation of its products also need to use masterbatch coloring. Such as polyfluoroethylene propylene masterbatch, polyvinylidene fluoride masterbatch, thermoplastic polyurethane masterbatch gave the masterbatch industry put forward new challenges. The preparation of these masterbatch in the choice of raw materials, processing technology and the use of conditions with the traditional masterbatch are very different. How to adapt to high-performance engineering plastics ultra-high temperature processing performance, thermoplastic elastomer special processing rheological properties will be faced with technical problems.
③ special brand high-quality masterbatch development
With the rapid development of China's plastic products industry, masterbatch production will be greater than in the past. Some masterbatch varieties will no longer directly supply downstream plastic products manufacturers, but directly to the upstream petrochemical enterprises, with masterbatch and resin directly made of color modified materials, such as pipe materials, automotive materials and so on. The formation of this mode of production so that the past has always been to small quantities, multi-species characteristics of the masterbatch production model to part of the transformation of a single species, large-scale production model. Changes in production patterns will also challenge the masterbatch technology, how to ensure long-term production of masterbatch uniformity, how to adapt to large-scale screw granulation technology will be the masterbatch to solve the technical problems.
④ color masterbatch with a dispersant, the development of additives
With the development of multi-functional masterbatch, high-performance engineering plastics, thermoplastic elastomer masterbatch, special grade high-quality masterbatch, with the development of dispersants and additives will also be the future masterbatch industry The important task. Such as the development of complex dispersant, high temperature dispersant, processing rheological performance regulator.
