- Blue Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic Product"Blue" is one of the widest color families in plastics. The correct Blue Masterbatch depends on which blue pigment family (phthalocyanine, ultramarine, cobalt, or organic azo blends), your host polymer, your processing temperature, and the end-use exposure…
- Brown Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic ProductBrown Masterbatch is one of the most durable and forgiving color families in plastics, but it is also the color most likely to be specified by appearance alone while ignoring the chemistry that creates it. The right grade depends on which brown pigment…
- Gold Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic ProductGold Masterbatch is an effect masterbatch that sits at the intersection of aesthetics, chemistry, and corrosion risk. The appearance comes from bronze or copper-zinc alloy pigments, gold-mica pearlescent pigments, or vacuum-metallized pigments. The right…
- Gray Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic ProductGray Masterbatch is almost always a blend rather than a single pigment. The final color depends on the ratio of black pigment to white pigment (usually TiO₂) and any small tint additions. The right grade is therefore defined by target neutral tone,…
- Green Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic ProductMost industrial "green" is a blend — typically a phthalocyanine green combined with a yellow pigment, or a chrome-based inorganic green for high-durability outdoor use. Choosing the right Green Masterbatch means choosing which green chemistry, which host…
- Orange Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic ProductOrange is one of the most technically risky color families in plastics because many orange pigments sit at the edge of acceptable heat stability, lightfastness, and regulatory limits. The right Orange Masterbatch depends on which orange pigment chemistry…

- Red Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic ProductRed is the most heat-sensitive and light-sensitive color family in plastics. Choosing the right Red Masterbatch is really about choosing which red pigment chemistry — organic (azo, quinacridone, DPP), inorganic (iron oxide), or blended — that fits your…
- Silver Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic ProductSilver Masterbatch is an effect masterbatch, not a standard color masterbatch. The appearance depends on flake type and geometry — coarse aluminum flakes, fine aluminum flakes, vacuum-metallized pigments (VMP), or mica-based pearlescent silvers — matched…
- Transparent Color Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic ProductTransparent Color Masterbatch is fundamentally different from opaque color masterbatch: it uses dyes or soluble pigments that color the polymer without scattering light, so the part stays see-through. The right grade depends on whether the base polymer can…
- Yellow Masterbatch — How to Choose the Right Grade for Your Plastic ProductYellow pigments are the most exposure-sensitive family in plastics — heat, light, migration, and regulatory constraints all matter more here than in most other colors. Choosing the right Yellow Masterbatch is really about choosing which yellow chemistry —…

Magnesium hydroxide decomposes at around 300–330 °C, so it is…
- Coated or Uncoated Talc for Plastics — Which One Your Line Actually NeedsUncoated talc is the default and is the right buy for most dry-blended, well-mixed polypropylene compounds. A coated talc is worth paying for when you are fighting one of four specific problems: poor feeding and dusting at the hopper, high torque or…
- Mineral Powder or Filler Masterbatch — Which Form Should You Actually Buy?Buy neat mineral powder if you run a compounding line: a twin-screw extruder, gravimetric powder dosing, dust extraction and someone who owns the formulation. Buy a filler masterbatch if you feed an extruder or moulding machine directly: the mineral is…
- Anti-Scratch Additives for PP and Automotive Interior PlasticsScratch visibility in a filled polypropylene interior part is not one failure — it is two. There is the mechanical groove the stylus or fingernail cuts, and there is the whitening around it caused by stress and by talc particles debonding from the matrix.…
- Halogen-Free vs Halogenated Flame Retardants — Choosing on EvidenceHalogenated systems interrupt combustion chemically in the gas phase, which makes them extremely efficient: a brominated package with an antimony trioxide synergist reaches a UL 94 V-0 rating at loadings low enough to leave mechanical properties largely…
- Impact Modifiers — Selection by PolymerAn impact modifier is a rubbery phase dispersed in a rigid polymer to stop brittle failure. There is no universal grade: polyolefins take POE or EPDM, rigid PVC takes acrylic core-shell, MBS or CPE, and PET takes polyester-specific systems.
- Slip and Anti-Block — Controlling COF Without Losing the PrintSlip and anti-block solve two different problems that are usually bought as one package. Slip agents — erucamide and oleamide — migrate to the surface and lower the coefficient of friction so film runs through formers, collars and sealing jaws. Anti-block…
- UV Stabilizer Selection — HALS, Absorbers and the Difference That MattersA UV absorber and a hindered amine light stabilizer do different jobs. The absorber intercepts UV photons before they reach the polymer backbone and works best in thicker sections where there is enough path length to absorb in. HALS does not absorb UV at…

An internal lubricant is compatible with the polymer, lowers melt viscosity and internal friction, and reduces torque and frictional heat — it changes how the melt flows.…
- Mould Care — Cleaning, Release and Corrosion ProtectionA mould fails for three reasons that mould-care chemistry can prevent: deposit on the cavity surface, blocked vents, and corrosion during storage. Treat them as three different products. Mould cleaners remove plasticiser bloom, additive plate-out and…
- Purging Compound Selection — Mechanical, Chemical and Abrasive GradesChoose the purge by the contamination you are removing, not by the machine. Mechanical purges rely on high viscosity and shear to push melt out — they are the safest choice for routine colour changes on injection moulding and are the only sensible option…
- Screw and Barrel Cleaning — When Purging Is No Longer EnoughPurging removes melt; cleaning removes deposit. Once a purge cycle stops clearing black specks after two full sequences, the carbon is baked onto the screw root or a barrel dead zone, and no further purge will remove it — you are now paying for purge…
- Calcium-Zinc vs Lead vs Tin Stabilizers: Selection for Rigid and Flexible PVCThere is no universally best PVC stabilizer chemistry. Calcium-zinc, tin, and lead stabilizers were each developed to solve a different combination of thermal, optical, mechanical, cost, and regulatory constraints, and they continue to co-exist in industry…
- Processing Aids & Acrylic Impact Modifiers: When You Actually Need ThemA processing aid fixes the melt — fusion, melt strength and surface. An acrylic impact modifier fixes the finished part — brittle failure in service. Neither one fixes a stabilizer or lubrication problem.
- PVC Formulation by Application: Pipe, Profile, Sheet, Cable and FoamEvery rigid PVC application uses the same four functional roles — thermal stabilizer, lubricant balance, processing aid and impact modifier — but weights them differently. Pipe is dominated by throughput, fusion consistency and long-term pressure…
- Stearic Acid in Masterbatch and PVC Compounding — Grade Selection and Buying GuideIn Masterbatch and PVC compounding, stearic acid is not an additive you choose by name — you choose it by iodine value, titre and origin.
