Advantages of using white masterbatch

What is a white masterbatch?

White Masterbatch: Contains high quality titanium dioxide. The type of titanium dioxide used in each product is selected according to the needs of the intended application.

Some products also contain micronized calcium carbonate with exceptional whiteness, chemical purity and low abrasion, which acts as an anti-blocking agent for the film. Reduces cooling time, increases hardness and reduces cost of use.
White Masterbatch: processed at the level of the most advanced production lines and every part is tested. We have determined the hardness tolerance limits for each parameter, we have studied the requirements for each end use. Controlled components include pigment content, color, dispersion quality, moisture content, and pellet size and quality.

Advantages of using white masterbatch

  • Color combination and compatibility

By using the white masterbatch, the consistency of the composition can be guaranteed by the metering dose feeders with maximum deviation tolerance. Titanium dioxide and calcium carbonate are controlled in the laboratory, that is, a certain amount of the masterbatch is subjected to thermal decomposition and the percentage content of each substance is calculated.

  • Excellent dispersion quality of pigments in white masterbatch

The dispersion quality in the white masterbatch is probably the most important of the main parameters, because it determines the strength of the color obtained from the pigments. Also, better scatter quality reduces user generation time.

  • Equipment for cleaning or replacing the filter in the white masterbatch

The quality of pigment dispersion is ensured by the excellent compounding capability of continuous extruders.
Melt filtration that retains excess particles and foreign matter.
Dispersion quality is controlled in the laboratory either by optical evaluation of the blown film or by testing the filter pressure value.

  • Low humidity in white masterbatch

The presence of volatile substances, in most cases moisture, can cause production problems and/or can affect the quality of the final product.
Very low volatile content is ensured by the drying equipment in which the pellets are processed before being transferred to the storage and bagging units. The humidity level is controlled by the laboratory.

  • Product range and applications in white masterbatch

As in the product offering, a wide standard range is available in PE, PP, PS, PVC-P and Universal carriers. The standard range covers a wide range of applications including extrusion, blow blown film and injection molding of manufactured products. can be formulated upon request.

Applications of white masterbatch

  • Agricultural products: Mulch (soil covering), agricultural tarpaulins and irrigation pipes
  • Weaving bags and sacks: sacks for animal feed, sugar, wheat flour, raffia and its uses in agriculture
  • Product packaging: explosives, injected, sheets, flat and impact films, sheet (thermoform) also for direct contact with food, with an emphasis on dairy and fatty foods.
  • Automotive parts: technical parts produced in engineering polymers (polyamides, polyesters, POM, etc.)
  • Electronic electronics industry: washing machine, blender, mixer, vacuum cleaner, coffee machine, notebook, DVD, TV, etc.
  • Textiles and fibers: monofilament and multifilament
  • Construction: geomembrane, channel, wire and cable, profile, branch, hose, connections, water tanks and corrugated pipes

Excellent quality white masterbatch

White masterbatch is one of the most common and widely used masterbatch. This type of masterbatch is included in the group of colored masterbatch and it consists of: base polymer, additive and compatibilizer. White masterbatch are classified according to the amount of titanium and the white color spectrum, which can be classified as snow white masterbatch, snowy white masterbatch, snowy white masterbatch, matte white masterbatch, milky lens white masterbatch, milky white masterbatch, masterbatch White with a blue bottom and…

White masterbatch formula

The white masterbatch used in plastic applications is one of the most widely used.

White masterbatch provides the brightness of the final product. A variety of chemicals such as titanium dioxide, antimony oxide, zinc oxide and zinc sulfide are used to provide these properties in plastic. Some of the main reasons for using titanium dioxide are due to its special properties, including medium particle size (0.19 to 0.22 microns), high refractive index and…

Our wide range of white masterbatches are based on top quality titanium dioxide. The titanium dioxide we use is selected for its excellent properties such as tint, color and resistance to tarnishing and staining. It is a unique surface treatment that provides good dispersion in plastics and has no effect on the rheological properties of a polymer. In case of dispersion of titanium dioxide in plastic, it may lead to insufficient use of pigment and loss of optical and mechanical properties.
Our white masterbatches contain special additives that make the resin compatible with titanium pigments. It also allows the resin to flow so that it disperses properly. We supply these masterbatches in different types depending on the percentage of titanium dioxide. It also depends on the end use and processing techniques. We make white masterbatches that contain up to 70% titanium dioxide.

Influential factors in the production of white masterbatch and colored masterbatch

  • Reproducibility of product color: Since the coloring power of pigments is very high, the smallest change in the color of the masterbatch causes a big change in the color of the final product.
  • Color distribution: It is one of the important factors in the white masterbatch, since the lack of distribution and distribution of pigment in the polymer texture causes the non-homogeneity of the produced piece..
  • Opacity of the product: based on the opacity of the product, the amount of white masterbatch can be measured.
