Desiccant Master Batch

FAQ's About Desiccant Master Batch

Desiccant Masterbatch is a type of additive masterbatch that contains desiccant materials, such as calcium carbonate, silica gel, or clay, which are used to absorb moisture from plastic products during the manufacturing process. It helps prevent moisture-related issues like hydrolysis, mold growth, and product degradation in plastic materials.

Desiccant Masterbatch works by absorbing moisture from the plastic material and preventing it from being trapped inside the polymer during processing. The desiccant component within the masterbatch is designed to absorb and hold moisture, thus preventing the formation of condensation, mold, or deterioration of plastic properties.

In plastic processing, moisture can negatively affect the final product by causing defects like bubbles, discoloration, and poor mechanical properties. By incorporating a desiccant masterbatch into the polymer, moisture is effectively absorbed, ensuring better quality, stability, and enhanced processing performance of the plastic.

Desiccant Masterbatch is typically added to the polymer during the processing stage, such as extrusion or injection molding. The masterbatch is mixed with the base resin at the recommended loading level, which is usually between 1% to 5% by weight, depending on the type of polymer and application.

The shelf life of Desiccant Masterbatch is typically 12 to 24 months if stored in a cool, dry environment, away from humidity and direct sunlight. Proper storage conditions are essential to maintaining the efficacy of the desiccant materials. Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations for storage.
