Market Definition: Masterbatch Industry
Masterbatch is a concentrated mixture of pigments, additives, or both, encapsulated into a carrier resin, which is then cooled and cut into a granular form. It is used to impart color and enhance properties such as UV resistance, flame retardancy, or anti-static capabilities in polymer-based products. By offering an efficient and consistent way to modify polymer properties during the manufacturing process, masterbatch plays a pivotal role in industries like packaging, automotive, construction, and electronics.
