In the compounders and recyclers industry, masterbatch plays a crucial role in enhancing the properties of recycled plastics and custom compounds. Masterbatch is a concentrated mixture of pigments, additives, and resins that is added to plastic during processing to achieve specific colors, improve performance, or provide other functional benefits such as UV resistance, flame retardancy, or anti-static properties. Compounders use masterbatches to ensure consistent quality and performance in their end products, while recyclers use them to enhance the quality of recycled plastic by compensating for the loss of properties that often occurs during recycling. This helps in reducing waste and producing high-quality, value-added plastic materials for various applications.
