what is a white masterbatch

what is a white masterbatch ?  it is a popular additive used to produce a wide range of plastic products, single and multi-layer films, disposable bottles and cups, and many more. its primary function is to give plastic products a bright, shiny white finish. axon polymer manufactures pure white masterbatches and several white masterbatches with various undertones.

what is a white masterbatch?

it is a color masterbatch that contains various grades of titanium dioxide (tio2), a polymer base, and other additives. in essence, it is a high-quality plastic pigment.

the white masterbatch serves to improve the whiteness of finished plastic products and is especially effective for polymer films, injection molding, and other applications. depending on the product’s requirements, the masterbatch contains 10% to 75% tio2 pigment.

white masterbatches contain special additives that make the polymer compatible with the titanium pigment, producing an ideal color for the finished product. white masterbatches come in a variety of forms based on the tio2 percentage.

 

what are the benefits of the white masterbatch?

incorporating tio2 into the masterbatch results in final products with a transparent, shiny white hue. white masterbatches offer several benefits, among which are:

• preservation of pigment chemical stability
• ease of handling
• environment-friendliness
• seamless integration and excellent dispersion
• suitability for food applications
• high-quality suitable for blow and injection molding processes
• efficient production of final products
• exceptional color receptivity
• high quality, durability, and superior levels of whiteness.

 

applications of white masterbatches

white masterbatches are widely used for various purposes thanks to their numerous advantages. this masterbatch has several applications, including:

• production of high-quality films
• fabrication of thin and extruded films
• white, glossy films with excellent surfaces for printing
• extrusion sheets and profiles
• thermoforming
• woven sacks
• bopp and bopet films

white masterbatches are important packaging material because they block light and prevent food spoilage. a protective layer can safeguard the product in harsh weather conditions. products made from white masterbatches show excellent physical properties. they also enhance heat resistance and boost the whiteness of the product. the masterbatch serves as a protective barrier against uv rays. this material is appropriate for producing thin film and woven sacks.

 

primary application of white masterbatches

white masterbatches are highly heat resistant, reducing tio2 in manufacturing. the question arising is, “what is tio2?”

tio2 is a mineral substance used as a whitening and brightening agent in various products, including foods and sunscreens. however, excessive accumulation or use of this substance may pose health risks.

research indicates that high levels of this substance can lead to cancer. we certainly do not wish to cause you any stress; however, it is essential to understand that white masterbatches help prevent the accumulation of tio2 in the packaging, thereby enhancing the quality of the final product.

 

white masterbatch formulation

the formulation entails raw materials and tio2. the intensity of the white color is directly proportional to the amount of tio2 present; higher tio2 levels lead to a brighter, whiter product.

standard white masterbatches contain tio2 at 10% to 75% concentrations. axon company offers a tailored solution, enabling customers to specify their preferred tio2 percentage. it is important to note that an increase in tio2 content will lead to a higher cost for the masterbatch.

in addition to pure white masterbatches, axon produces white masterbatches with milky, greenish, and bluish undertones.

 

white masterbatch price

tio2 is added to masterbatches to impart a bright white color to plastics. the white masterbatch price rises in proportion to the quantity of tio2 employed. consequently, it is not possible to provide an exact price, and typically, a price range is offered instead. the price is determined by the client’s demands and the preferred level of whiteness.

white masterbatch price: USD 0.79 to USD 2.99per KG

in the market, prices are typically based on the percentage of tio2 used. for instance, a masterbatch may contain 10% titanium or 70% tio2. consequently, customers must specify the exact amount of tio2 to receive an accurate price. axon sales consultants can provide customers with the appropriate tio2 percentage based on their needs and the color they are considering.

another critical factor in determining the price of a white masterbatch is its datasheet. typically, iranian companies do not offer data sheets on their websites. therefore, customers are advised to contact the company directly, specify their requirements, and obtain the color and datasheet.

we publish the current price of white masterbatches on our website. as the first pricing reference in iran, we aim to assist you in selecting the masterbatch that best suits your needs. offering a complimentary sample enables you to proceed with your purchase assuredly.
