Market Research as the Key to Market Expansion and Competitive Analysis<\/h2>\n

This market study enables companies to understand the regional market potential and growth potential of the masterbatch market and to find the right masterbatch suppliers. The market research provides detailed data on the demand for white, black, colored, and additive-containing masterbatches and shows specific market segments such as packaging and the construction industry as important sales markets.<\/p>\n

Concentrates for the Plastics Industry<\/h2>\n

Powders, pastes, or liquid additives can also be used to modify plastics. With granulates, however, the aggregates can be distributed more evenly and process reliability can be increased. Prefabricated, ready-to-use masterbatches also allow raw polymers to be purchased in large quantities at low cost and then modified quickly and specifically for certain applications. Color masterbatches contain pigments<\/a> or dyes. Additive masterbatches modify other plastic properties, for example with the help of stabilizers<\/a>, antioxidants, flame retardants<\/a>, or fillers<\/a>. Combination masterbatches combine different additives<\/a>. The color and additive concentrates tailored to specific applications are melted together with a polymer carrier material and then granulated. Master batches are usually added to plastics in proportions of 2 to 6%. They must be compatible with the plastic to be modified and meet all regulations for the end products, for example for applications with food contact<\/a>, medical technology, or bioplastics<\/a>.<\/p>\n

White Masterbatches Are Most Popular<\/h2>\n

Toys, electrical appliances, furniture, or plastic films<\/a>: white masterbatches, especially with titanium dioxide (TiO2)<\/a>, are used in large quantities to color plastics white and protect them against UV rays. As the market study shows, around 1.6 million tonnes of granules with white pigments are currently sold on the plastics market worldwide every year, making them the most consumed type of masterbatch. This is followed by color masterbatches that contain colorful inorganic and organic pigments<\/a> or effect dyes. Carbon black is mainly used to color pipes, agricultural films, automotive parts<\/a>, or other plastic products black: Industrial carbon black<\/a> is very resistant to color changes and fading. So far, carbon black has mainly been produced by incomplete combustion of heavy petroleum fractions \u2013 but there are already projects to recycle old vehicle tires. Innovative additives facilitate the recycling of plastics or offer special functions, such as biodegradability, special heat resistance, or forgery protection.<\/p>\n

Granulated Additives for the Whole World<\/h2>\n

There is practically no area of life without plastics and elastomers anymore \u2013 so masterbatches are also needed everywhere. According to this global masterbatch market analysis, the most important application area for masterbatches is packaging<\/a>, which currently accounts for around one third of total demand. Masterbatches are needed for flexible plastic packaging<\/a>, such as films<\/a>, bags, and sacks<\/a>, as well as for rigid packaging<\/a>, such as yogurt pots, cans, bottles, and lids. The next largest sales markets for masterbatches are construction products<\/a>, vehicles<\/a>, electrical and electronics, as well as other industrial goods. Geographically, the revenues generated with masterbatches correspond to the global market for plastics: More than a third is generated in the Asia-Pacific region, North America accounts for just under 23%, and Western Europe for 19%.<\/p>\n

Fourth Edition of Ceresana\u2019s \u201cMasterbatches\u201d Market Study:<\/h3>\n

Chapter 1<\/strong> provides a comprehensive analysis of the global market for plastic masterbatches \u2013 including forecasts up to 2033: The development of demand<\/strong> (in tonnes) and revenues<\/strong> (in USD and EUR) is shown for each region.<\/p>\n

Demand for the various masterbatch types<\/strong> is broken down as follows:<\/p>\n
