How masterbatch quality affects color and part stability

Sabin Polymer Arvand’s masterbatch family has two catalog lines: antioxidant masterbatch and titanium dioxide (TiO₂) masterbatch. Their quality affects color, hiding power, heat stability, and part life.

Antioxidant

The antioxidant masterbatch is described as stable protection against heat, oxidation, and degradation for polyethylene and polypropylene. Stated properties include compatibility, dispersibility, thermal stability, less yellowing, and better processability. Listed uses include PE and irrigation pipes, films, tanks, cable sheathing, and injection-molded parts.

Titanium dioxide

TiO₂ masterbatch is specified for brilliant whiteness, coverage, and stable performance in pipes, films, fibers, bottles, profiles, and sheets. Uniform dispersion, light stability, and UV resistance affect appearance. If dispersion, process heat stability, or polymer compatibility is not controlled, color, surface, or properties suffer.
