JWELL provide systems for custom color and color concentrate“masterbatch” application

Masterbatch is a solid or liquid additive for plastic used for coloring plastics (color masterbatch)

or improving other properties of plastics (additive masterbatch). Masterbatch is a concentrated

mixture of pigments and/or additives (20-90%) encapsulated during a heat process into a carrier

resin which is post-cooled and cut into a granular shape. Masterbatches are available in a wide

range of carrier resins: PE, PP, PS, SAN, PMMA, ABS, PET, PBT, PLA, PA, PES, EVA, TPU and

bio-resins.

The aim of masterbatch production is the optimum incorporation of additives in the polymer matrix.

The fine and powdery bulk material often tends to agglomerate and therefore it is difficult to work

with.

Co-rotating twin screw extruder is the main component of a masterbatch line. It fulfills the task of

homogenizing, dispersing (splitting of the agglomerates), wetting and distributing the pigments/

additives/fillers in the polymer matrix. This is done either via premix or split feed or a color-matching

process.

Green Solutions: Bio-Plastic Compounding for Sustainable Manufacturing

As the world shifts towards sustainability, bio-plastics have emerged as a promising alternative to conventional plastics. JWELL Bio-Plastic Compounding Machines are at the forefront of this green revolution, enabling the production of bio-based masterbatches with superior properties and performance. By blending bio-resins with natural additives and fillers, JWELL extrusion technology creates bio-plastic compounds that are biodegradable, compostable, and renewable. These compounds find applications in a wide range of industries, from packaging to automotive, contributing to reduced carbon footprint and environmental preservation.
