What are the advantages of Color Masterbatch over toner coloring?

Strong pertinence and correct color matching. Because the color masterbatch manufacturer has reasonably selected pigments (dyes), additives, processing equipment and processing technology according to the performance of applicable resin in the manufacturing process, timely corrected and supplemented the color difference that may be brought by different batches of toner in the production process, and then inspected when leaving the factory, it can ensure that the color of the same brand of color masterbatch and the first and second batches of color remain relatively stable.

   

Compared with toner coloring, masterbatch coloring has the following obvious advantages:

(1) The environmental pollution problem caused by the flying toner is improved. The color change is easy in the process of use. There is no need to carry out special cleaning of the extruder hopper, which is more convenient.

(2) Strong pertinence and correct color matching. Because the color masterbatch manufacturer has reasonably selected pigments (dyes), additives, processing equipment and processing technology according to the performance of applicable resin in the manufacturing process, timely corrected and supplemented the color difference that may be brought by different batches of toner in the production process, and then inspected when leaving the factory, it can ensure that the color of the same brand of color masterbatch and the first and second batches of color remain relatively stable.

(3) Compared with the resin granulation method, the service life of plastic products after secondary dyeing can be improved. "

The biggest advantage of using color masterbatch is that in the processing process, under the action of additives, the color masterbatch is fully mixed and fully combined with the carrier resin. When in use, it is placed in the resin to be processed according to a certain proportion, and the color masterbatch quickly enters the role and recognizes "family" with the resin. Affinity compatibility is obviously better than toner coloring. Therefore, it is more appreciated by manufacturers of film and spinning products.

Of course, the coloring of masterbatch also has its limitations. Due to the small amount of addition and the short processing time of plastic products, the dispersion of masterbatch is often not as good as toner due to the limitation of the length diameter ratio of extruder screw. With one more manufacturing process, the dyeing cost must be higher than that of toner coloring. When the performance of the carrier in the color masterbatch is different from that of the resin to be colored, there are often non dispersed points, color spots and patterns on the surface of plastic products. Therefore, the use of color masterbatch is limited due to its compatibility and dispersion. The production of Color Masterbatch needs a minimum quantity, which is not suitable for the production of injection molded parts with less single and more non universal colors.
