PLASTIC COLOURANTS

Plastic colourants are compounded pigments and additives used in the coloring of plastic containers and products requiring different processes like extrusion, injection, blow molding and blown film.

Dry Colorants
Dry colorants are also known as pigments. These are also plastic colourants in powdered form, designed and formulated to give optimum dispersion. These are best suited for injection moulding, bottle blowing and extrusion and are also suitable for monofilaments. It can be used for as low as.55 concentration. The maximum is 2.5% that contain inorganic pigments.

Masterbatches
Manufactured in cooperation with DRYCOLOR-HOECHST, Masterbatch is essentially a color concentrate consisting of a thermo-plastic resin with a high load of pigments and/or other special additives. The resin used gives optimum wetting and dispersion of the pigment as well as to ensure complete compatibility with the resin to be colored. Recommended concentration is between2.0% and 5.0%.
