Description
Additive Masterbatch refers to a type of masterbatch used in the plastics industry. It is a concentrated mixture of additives and pigments that are incorporated into a carrier resin to enhance the properties or appearance of plastic products during the manufacturing process. The additives in the masterbatch can include UV stabilizers, flame retardants, antioxidants, anti-static agents, and more. The masterbatch is then blended with the base polymer to achieve the desired properties in the final plastic product.
According to the latest estimates, the global additive masterbatches market is set to achieve an incremental growth of USD 0.9 billion, accelerating at a CAGR of almost 5.6% during the forecast period 2023-2029. The growing demand for plastic products in various industries such as packaging, automotive, construction, and consumer goods is driving the demand for Additive Masterbatch. These masterbatches help improve the performance, durability, and aesthetics of plastic products, thereby enhancing their market appeal.
