Masterbatches PA are fully named PolyAmide - This is a macromolecule with tightly linked amidic units that are repeated. Does it bring any benefits in the current plastic industry? Let's learn about this line of masterbatches with EuP!

What are the common physical properties of PA  masterbatches ?

It can be said that masterbatches PA (Polyamide) have great advantages and are considered to be widely used in the market today such as:

• High abrasion resistance as well as low friction coefficient;

• Durable, light, good at low temperature resistance but can deform at high temperatures;

• Non-toxic, easy to apply in production process and easy to create color like printing and dyeing;

• Good smoothness, high surface hardness;

• Chemical resistance against organic solvents and good organic fuels,

• Secure food safety when making food packaging

Combined with the characteristics of plastic additives that the product can be well insulated, high flame retardant, avoid damage from ultraviolet rays, .... In addition, masterbatches PA (Polyamide) are viewed is a thermoplastic that can soften into liquid under the effect of high temperature and solidify when cooling.

Besides, there are also some disadvantages to note such as:

• Poor elasticity of the size, mechanical properties can be affected if too much water is absorbed;

• Poor acid resistance, particularly, the product can not be dyed with acid or have too much contact with acid.

• Color fastness and durability in poorly polluted environments.

How does masterbatches PA applied in plastic production today?

There are three main areas that masterbatches PA have been contributing to:

• Production of cars: filter fuel tanks, items containing consumables, machine oil bottles, engine lid, radiator water bottle, ...

• In the electronics industry: Production of semiconductor cookers, vacuum cleaners, and high temperature heaters.

• Used as plastic bags, raincoats …

• Apply in construction industry such as making chair, table and others furniture.
