TPU antistatic masterbatch may not be something you encounter often, but it is actually quite common around us. It can be used to manufacture a wide variety of products, large or small, odd or regular shapes, and the antistatic masterbatch is one of them. What are the chemical components of the antistatic masterbatch production?

1. The carrier: Antistatic masterbatch is the matrix of color masterbatch. Generally, the same resin as the product resin is chosen as the carrier due to their excellent compatibility, while also considering the fluidity of the carrier.

2. Dispersant: The TPU antistatic masterbatch promotes even dispersion of pigments and prevents them from agglomerating. The melting point of the dispersant should be lower than that of the resin, ensuring good compatibility with the resin and a good affinity with the pigments. Common dispersants include polyethylene low molecular weight wax and stearates.

3. Additives: Types such as flame retardant, brightening, antibacterial, antistatic, and antioxidant, are generally not included in the white masterbatch unless specified by the customer.

4. Pigments or Dyes: Pigments for masterbatches are categorized into organic and inorganic types. Common organic pigments include phthalocyanine red, phthalocyanine blue, phthalocyanine green, fast red, macromolecular red, macromolecular yellow, permanent yellow, permanent purple, azo red, etc. Common inorganic pigments include cadmium red, cadmium yellow, titanium dioxide, carbon black, iron oxide red, iron oxide yellow, etc.
