Definitions Polymer Compounding : Combining a base plastic resin with Colours, Modifiers, Reinforcements, Fillers or other polymers by Melting & Mixing in an Extruder to convert the base resin properties to deliver a better performance, low cost, ease of manufacturing & more attractive appearance.
Agglomeration : to form a mass
Pigments : Colouring matter

Masterbatch Polymer granules with a high percentage of additives (higher than in the end use)
Additives are optimally dispersed & encapsulated in a carrier material

Types of Masterbatch1. Colour Masterbatch – for colouring plastic products
2. Additive Masterbatch – for certain chemical & physical properties for end product
3. Filler Masterbatch – for cost reduction

Goal of Masterbatch Production The Aim is the ideal dispersion of pigment/additives in the polymer matrix.
The powdery feed material tends to agglomerate.
Dispersive & Distributive Mixing: Dispersion : incorporation of pigment/additives into binder or carrier
Distributive mixing : distribution of the material without destroying the single components

Production Process Premix consisting of:
Polymer, Pigment & dispersion additive
is fed to the extruder
![Page 12: Masterbatch 26.08.2015](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103105/587800ae1a28ab91178b6b2b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Polymer is plasticized first
Pigment & dispersion additive
via separate feeder
![Page 13: Masterbatch 26.08.2015](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103105/587800ae1a28ab91178b6b2b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Methods of Producing Masterbatch
Single Stage ProcessAll the components are combined in one processing step
Process can be either Pre-mix or Split
Can be applied for all 3 types of Masterbatch
Two Stage Process
![Page 14: Masterbatch 26.08.2015](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103105/587800ae1a28ab91178b6b2b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
Methods of Producing Masterbatch
Two Stage ProcessSingle pigment are produced in the same manner as single stage
Followed by second extrusion step, that combines required ratio of colourant & additive
Can be applied only for Colour Masterbatch

Colour Masterbatch Colour Pigments (20-90%) + Carrier Polymer (>10%) (Carrier polymer selection is basis compatibility of the Raw Polymer which is used for the Plastic product)
Universal Masterbatch
(these are polymer less masterbatch)

Additive MasterbatchAnti-Static:• Reduces static charges developed in the plastic products
Anti-Block:• Plastic film layers tend to stick together, this phenomena is called Blocking.• Anti-block MB create small space between the 2 layers (surface roughness) preventing blocking.• Additionally this imparts Slip properties & Scratch resistance• Allows smooth unwinding of Rolls
Anti-Fogging :• Fogging refers to condensation of water-vapours on the surface of the plastic film

Additive MasterbatchAnti-Oxidant :• Used to protect polymers from Degradation, during processing & during use• During polymer degradation free radicals are formed, resulting in uncontrolled chain reactions• Anti-Oxidants are used to decrease the amount of free radicals
Cling Agent :• Used during the manufacturing of stretch films
UV Masterbatch :• These are PE filled with Ultra Violet Stabilizers (hindered amine light stabilizers)• Harmful UV rays from sunlight degrade & discolour the exposed plastic products• UV MB avoids discolouration & chalking

Additive MasterbatchOptical Brightener Masterbatch :• Used to impart whiteness & brightness to plastic products without any blue tone
Silicon Masterbatch :• Enhances abrasion resistance
Processing Aid Masterbatch :• Improves the extrusion ability of the polymer
Clarifying Masterbatch :• Lowers the haze & improves the transparancy in Injection moulded items

Fillers Fillers are materials added to plastic to lower the consumption of expensive polymers.
Eg.
Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3)
Talc
