Application Guides
How the material behaves in a specific process or product.
Agricultural Film Masterbatch
Agricultural Film Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for blown or cast agricultural film extrusion — typically in LDPE, LLDPE, EVA. There is no single SKU for this application: the right grade depends on your polymer, process window, color…
Automotive Injection Masterbatch
Automotive Injection Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for injection molding of automotive interior and under-hood parts — typically in PP, PP compound, ABS, PC/ABS, PA.
Blow Molding Masterbatch
Blow Molding Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for extrusion blow molding or injection stretch blow molding — typically in HDPE, PP, PET, PVC.
Blown Film Masterbatch
Blown Film Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for blown film extrusion — typically in LDPE, LLDPE, HDPE.
Bottle Masterbatch
Bottle Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for blow molding of consumer bottles — typically in HDPE, PET, PP.
Caps & Closures Masterbatch
Caps & Closures Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for injection molding of closures — typically in HDPE, PP.
Cast Film Masterbatch
Cast Film Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for cast film extrusion — typically in LLDPE, LDPE, PP.
Conduit Pipe Masterbatch
Conduit Pipe Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for extrusion of electrical conduit — typically in HDPE, PVC, PP.
Drainage Pipe Masterbatch
Drainage Pipe Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for extrusion of gravity drainage and sewer pipe — typically in HDPE, PP, PVC.
FIBC Masterbatch
FIBC Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for pp tape extrusion for fibc (bulk bag) fabric — typically in PP.
Film Masterbatch
Film Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for film extrusion (blown, cast, or specialty) — typically in LDPE, LLDPE, HDPE, PP, PET.
Food Packaging Sheet Masterbatch
Food Packaging Sheet Masterbatch is the Masterbatch selection problem for sheet extrusion for food packaging thermoforming — typically in PP, PET, PS, PLA.

Answers in the same category, written for adjacent decisions.
Anti-block / Slip Masterbatch — Film Blocking Together or Feeding Poorly
Freshly wound film sticks to itself, or converted bags do not open or feed through packaging machines.
Anti-fog Masterbatch — Fog or Water Droplets Inside Greenhouse or Food Packaging Film
Water condenses as droplets inside greenhouse film (blocking light) or food packaging film (blurring product view and dripping onto food).
Anti-static Masterbatch — Static Electricity on Plastic Film or Parts
Plastic parts or film hold a static charge — attracting dust, sticking, or creating ESD risk in electronics packaging.
Desiccant Masterbatch — Bubbles, Streaks, or Splay When Processing Regrind or Wet Resin
Regrind or hygroscopic-contaminated resin produces bubbles, silver streaks, or splay marks in the finished part, and drying is not practical or sufficient.
Flame Retardant Masterbatch — Plastic Burns or Fails a Flame Rating
A plastic part must pass a flame-rating standard (e.g., UL 94 V-0, glow-wire, FMVSS 302) and the base resin fails.
Laser-Marking Masterbatch — Cannot Laser-Mark on Dark or Colored Plastic
A part needs a permanent, high-contrast laser mark (barcode, batch code, logo) and the base resin does not respond — the mark is faint, blurred, or invisible.
