Black masterbatch is a common type of color masterbatch in plastic processing and also one of the most abundant ones. Black masterbatch is widely used in the field of plastic granulation, such as injection molding, extrusion forming and injection molding, etc. In real life, black masterbatch is widely used in the injection molding process of car plastic parts, the extrusion forming of plastic pipes, and the production and manufacturing of agricultural mulching films and geosynthetic materials.
Black masterbatch is a plastic additive made from a high proportion of color paste or preservative and thermoplastic through excellent dispersion. The resin used has excellent wetting and dispersing effects on the additive, and also has excellent compatibility with the raw materials to be colored, that is: carbon black + resin + additive = color masterbatch.
Black masterbatch is widely used in plastic products. The color of the plastic made from it will not fade and is more vivid. However, if the black masterbatch is operated incorrectly, it will affect the coloring effect. So, what are the difficult problems in the production of black masterbatch? Under normal circumstances, when applying color masterbatches, more resins are used. A common problem is that after the application of such resins is completed, the actual effect of replacing the resins for processing will be different. Or the color tone of the processed product is different from that of the previous batch. But the secret recipe for the black mother is indeed the same.
Under normal circumstances, the density and melt index of resins from different brands are not the same, so their manufacturing properties are likely to vary. As a result, their compatibility with black masterbatches will also be different, and thus the tones produced will be distinct. However, if the density of general resins does not differ much, the tones will not be significantly different. However, if the density and melt index differ significantly, the proportion or usage amount of the masterbatch can be adjusted in sequence to regulate the tone. This issue is rather widespread. If there is such a situation, you can communicate with the manufacturer to find a solution.
Black masterbatch has a very wide range of applications, especially in the plastic products industry, almost covering the entire plastic products industry. For instance, it is used in injection molding, sheet materials, pipes, household appliances, toys, automobiles, building materials and other industries. The application fields are also very extensive, including injection molding, pipes, cables, foaming and other fields, where the presence of color masterbatch can be seen.
In terms of dyeing plastic products, only 0.6 to 0.8 black masterbatch is needed, and it will be extremely black. Even if you add more, it won't get darker. According to the test data, for products used outdoors in Xinjiang region, if they need to rely on black masterbatch for anti-aging, as long as black masterbatch (rather than recycled materials as carriers, moistened with white oil, dispersed with calcium carbonate, etc.) is used, the content of carbon black in the product should reach 2-2.5, that is: For every 100 kilograms of raw materials, there are 5 to 6 parts (by weight) of masterbatch containing 40 carbon black. The effect it plays far exceeds that of any anti-aging product, and the product life can reach more than 10 years. This is why drip irrigation products, water transmission products and communication cable products are all black. In addition, carbon black makes special contributions to increasing the strength of products and enhancing their electrical conductivity.
