Oxo-biodegradable additives are catalytic materials that can be infused into any plastic/polymer products which essentially speeds up the degradation process of plastic. It’s a two-step process; the oxidation process is kicked off by the additives which are followed by biodegradation. This enables the waste plastic to degrade over time from light, heat, moisture and physical stress since the tensile strength of the polymer chain is weakened . In other words, almost all single-use plastic products use this additive during the production process.   The main motivation behind this is to minimize plastic pollution and control the way we use plastic in our daily lives. Granted, plastic is incredibly versatile and has endless applications in the modern world. As a matter of fact, much of our work will be stalled without it. However, plastic also happens to be the top contributor to pollution mainly owing to the bad waste management system. To address this challenge, oxo-biodegradable ad...

  Plastic products are an essential part of our lives without which many of the routine activities we undertake will never happen. Plastic is present in almost every item we use in our homes, offices, and every other walk of our lives. Our home appliances are mostly made of plastic. Our vehicles have many plastic components. Our phones, laptops, and all other electronic devices are mainly made of plastic. Our offices are filled with plastic products that help us with the day-to-day tasks. Our hospitals depend on plastic products for various medical procedures. In short, without plastic and plastic-based products, much of our world will come to a standstill. While we could control and minimize the usage of plastic with time and effort, it will probably take a few decades before we can independently function without the use of plastic. Despite having a never-ending list of benefits and applications, plastic also happens to be one of the biggest reasons for environmental pollution acr...

  Masterbatches are a composition of pigments and additives used in polymer products to give the desired colour and physical properties. A polymer in its natural form is colourless and unwieldy which makes it difficult to use for any purpose. Adding polymer masterbatches helps in minimising these inadequacies and provides the desired properties in the final output. They usually come in granule-shaped condensed blocks formed by mixing the additives and pigment. Each variant of masterbatch can be made to provide specific colours and properties required by the user such as antistatic, antioxidant, fire retardant, UN resistance and so forth. Thanks to the superior quality of the components and modern technology, we can achieve more vivid colours and infuse the required physical property more effectively than ever.    The importance of polymer masterbatches in the plastic industry is paramount and unquestioned. As a result, companies engaged in the task of production and dist...

Pigment by definition refers to a naturally or synthetically made coloured material that is insoluble in water. Its main purpose is to provide colour to materials according to the user’s requirements. It is mainly used in various industrial applications such as plastic , cosmetics, paints, etc. Masterbatches are a specialized form of colouring agent which contains both pigments and additives. It is particularly used for any kind of plastic product across industries and applications. Masterbatch comes in small granules which are added to the plastic during the production process. The pigment gives it the desired colour while the additive gives it the required physical properties such as durability, corrosion resistance, chemical stability, heat resistance, UV resistance and so forth. Production of masterbatch requires a great deal of compounding process where the pigment and additive need to be merged into the polymer base homogeneously. Once this process is completed; it finds use as r...
