Masterbatch Antistatic is a type of polymer additive used to reduce or eliminate the accumulation of electrostatic charges on the surface of plastic products. Stay with us for more information on the application and performance of Antistatic Masterbatch in the following article.

Brief about Antistatic Materials

These are materials that prevent or reduce the accumulation of static electricity on surfaces. These materials are used in various industries such as electronics, textiles, plastics, packaging, and even in the production of floorings and special clothing. Types of antistatic materials include antistatic plastics and conductive plastics. Conductive plastics have the property of conductivity and easily conduct electric charge. Antistatic materials are used to blend with common polymers such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and PVC.

What is Antistatic Masterbatch?

The combination of Antistatic Masterbatch with polymer materials prevents the accumulation of electrostatic charges on its surface. Using this masterbatch creates a conductive layer on the surface of plastic products to dissipate static electricity. Manufacturers use it to solve problems such as dust attraction, static sparks, sudden discharge of static electricity, etc. One of the advantages of using Antistatic Masterbatch is to increase safety in industrial environments with flammable materials. Types of Antistatic Masterbatch include internal antistatic and external antistatic. Internal antistatic is dissolved in the polymer structure and gradually migrates to the surface. Its effect is long-term but depends on its rate of diffusion. External antistatic is added to the product's surface and has a faster effect but may decrease due to washing or abrasion. Antistatic Masterbatch is added to primary plastic materials like polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, PVC, and ABS in different percentages (usually 1 to 5%) and used in processes such as injection molding, extrusion, and molding.

Characteristics of Antistatic Masterbatch

Antistatic Masterbatch is a plastic additive used to reduce or prevent the accumulation of electrostatic charges on the surface of plastic products. This charge accumulation can lead to problems such as dust attraction, production process issues, static electricity hazards, and even damage to electronic equipment. By uniformly distributing antistatic materials in the plastic matrix, electrostatic charges are effectively discharged. In industrial environments where static sparks may occur, it reduces the hazards of static electricity.

Application of Antistatic Masterbatch

Antistatic Masterbatch is used in various industries to prevent the accumulation of static electricity and related issues. It is used to prevent dust attraction and improve the appearance quality. In the production of industrial and agricultural nylon for reducing adhesion and dust in open environments, this masterbatch is used. In electronic packaging to prevent electrostatic discharge, it is used. It is used in electronic packaging production to prevent electrostatic discharge that may damage sensitive components. Other important applications of masterbatch include:

Kitchen plastic containers: Preventing dust absorption

Plastic carpets and curtains: Preventing static electricity absorption

Hospital protective clothing: Preventing the transfer of static electricity

Hygienic packaging: Preventing contamination and dust absorption

Household plastic parts: Such as refrigerators, televisions, and washing machines

Medical containers and equipment: Such as syringes, blood bags, and sterile packaging

Greenhouse nylon: Reducing dust absorption and improving nylon performance in different weather conditions

Plastic packaging for fertilizers and seeds: Preventing material adhesion to the inner packaging surface

How Antistatic Materials Work

Antistatic materials help reduce and control static electricity. Some antistatic materials have the ability to absorb air moisture. When humidity is high, static electricity accumulation will increase. Antistatic units, by using a combination of certain chemical compounds such as special polymers, metallic substances, or special additives added to the material surface, prevent the accumulation of static electricity. By using a combination of certain chemical compounds such as special polymers, metallic substances, or special additives added to the material surface, prevent the accumulation of static electricity.

Importance of Using Antistatic Masterbatch

In the production of polymer products, antistatic masterbatches are used due to their unique properties. One of the important reasons for using additive masterbatches is to prevent dust attraction. The presence of static charges makes it easier for dust to adhere to the surface of polymer products. To solve this problem, blending polymer materials with antistatic masterbatch will permanently solve the problem. In the production process of sensitive electronic equipment, a combination of polymer and antistatic masterbatch is used because static charges can cause serious damage to electronic equipment. Therefore, in the production process of electronic equipment, additive antistatic masterbatch is used. Some products are used in places where a single spark can cause serious damage, so to reduce fire hazards and prevent sparks, this masterbatch is used. Considering that the negative effects of static electricity can be significant, its combination with polymer materials reduces potential risks. If you intend to produce polymer products with a better appearance, you can use this masterbatch to create products with a better appearance.

Factors Affecting the Price of Antistatic Masterbatch

Many factors will affect the final price of antistatic masterbatch. For example, the type and quality of raw materials will have a significant impact on the final price of this product. The production method of masterbatch and the use of modern technologies in its production will affect production costs.
