Color masterbatch is a concentrated mixture of high-quality pigments or dyes, a polymer carrier resin (such as PP, PE, or PVC), and special additives, processed through advanced twin-screw extrusion technology to form uniform, high-dispersion granules.
It is used in plastic manufacturing to impart consistent, vibrant, and durable colors to finished products, while ensuring excellent processing performance.
Role of Color Masterbatch in Plastic Manufacturing
In short, it enables manufacturers to achieve high-quality visual appearance with stable production performance.
