Options for Coloring Plastics

To meet the ever-increasing difficulties of the plastic fabrication industry, plastic compounding suppliers add coloring and additive technologies to the creation of plastic. A manufacturer and engineer have options for adding color and unique characteristics to their plastic parts and products. Below, we want to take the time to go over some of the most popular options. For more information on the greatest specialty compounding NY has, you should reach out to us today.

Solid masterbatch is the industry's most widely used method for coloring polymers across the globe. This manufacturing process increases overall cleanliness, performance, and storage capabilities, which help to ease hassle and costs. Many argue that solid masterbatch gives plastic advantages when compared to pre-colored resins, raw pigments, and liquid color.

Single pigment dispersion is also called mono-pigments (SPDs). They are known to be very highly loaded masterbatches that are distributed in either liquid or solid forms. This manufacturing method uses a single, individual pigment. Single pigment dispersion is ideal for industries that used cast acrylic sheets, PVC films, and other pre-colored compounds.

Specialty Compounding

Plastic additives are a technology that has developed polymer additives. Additives are designed to solve difficult challenged while also maintaining a delicate balance between performance and cost. It is possible to get high levels of UV protection and to add glow-in-the-dark attributes to plastic.
