How to Use Red Color Masterbatch

Using red color masterbatch is straightforward. Mix it with resin pellets at the specified ratio, typically 1-5%, adjusting according to color requirements. Pay attention to the following points during processing:

  • Even Mixing: Ensure the red color masterbatch is thoroughly and uniformly dispersed with the resin to prevent color variation.
  • Temperature Control: Maintain appropriate processing temperatures to prevent pigment degradation or color inconsistencies caused by excessive heat.
  • Processing Speed: Maintain an appropriate processing speed to ensure complete integration of the color masterbatch.

Through precise formulation and proper processing control, red color masterbatch delivers consistent, stable red coloration for plastic products.

What is the production process for red masterbatch?

  • Raw Material Preparation：Prepare red pigment, carrier resin, dispersant, and other auxiliary additives. Inspect raw material quality to ensure compliance with production standards. Pre-screen and dry the pigment to prevent moisture or impurities from affecting quality.
  • Pigment and Resin Mixing：Using mixing equipment, precisely blend red pigment with carrier resin at the specified ratio. Ensure thorough and uniform dispersion of pigment and resin to prevent agglomeration or sedimentation of the pigment.
  • Main Extrusion：Feed the mixture into an extruder. Through heating and plasticization, uniformly disperse the red pigment within the resin to form tightly bonded, extruded red masterbatch strands.
  • Cooling and Solidification: After extrusion, cool the material using cooling rolls, water cooling, or air cooling. This rapidly solidifies the molten material into granular form, enhancing particle stability.
  • Cutting and Screening Inspection: The cooled extruded strands are cut into standard particle sizes using a pelletizer. Screening removes non-conforming particles, followed by quality inspections for color difference, particle size distribution, and flowability.
  • Packaging and Storage: Products are sealed in standard 25kg moisture-proof bags and stored in a dry, cool environment to prevent moisture and high temperatures from affecting product quality.
