Universal color masterbatch has many defects. In fact, the "universal" scale of universal color masterbatch is very small, and the technical indicators and economic benefits are also poor.

Special color masterbatch: It is a color masterbatch manufactured using the same plastic as the carrier according to the plastic variety specified by the user for the product. PP masterbatch and ABS masterbatch are separately selected as carriers.

Universal color masterbatch: It also uses a certain resin (often low melting point PE) as a carrier, but it can be used for coloring other resins besides its carrier resin.

Universal color masterbatch is relatively simple and convenient, but has many defects. We advocate that we choose specialized color masterbatch:

Universal color masterbatch has many defects. In fact, the "universal" scale of universal color masterbatch is very small, and the technical indicators and economic benefits are also poor, specifically manifested in:

1. Poor predictability of coloring effect: Color masterbatch is used for coloring, and pigments from universal color masterbatch will present different colors in different plastics, so the predictability of coloring effect is poor.

2. Impact on other functions of plastic products: especially affecting strength, products are prone to deformation and distortion, which is more significant for engineering plastics.

3. High cost: In order to be universal, universal color masterbatches often use pigments with higher heat resistance levels, resulting in waste.

Can color masterbatch have flame retardant, brightening, and other functions in addition to coloring?

Color masterbatch can have several functions simultaneously. Sometimes, color masterbatch companies may advocate for users to add some additives according to the needs of the product, such as adding certain additives, such as brighteners, to the color masterbatch. Of course, this will increase the cost of the product.
