Silicone masterbatch: a secret weapon to improve the performance of plastic products

Silicone masterbatch2

Introduction

Silicone masterbatch as a high-performance polymer material, it has been widely used in many industries. It is a functional masterbatch that uses various thermoplastic plastics as carriers and organic polysiloxanes as active ingredients. It has the characteristics of improving the fluidity of thermoplastic resin in the molten state, improving the dispersion of fillers, reducing energy consumption in extrusion and injection molding processing, and improving production efficiency.

The new upgraded silicone masterbatch of Xiamen Xiangxi New Materials Co., Ltd. is made of ultra-high molecular weight polydimethylsiloxane through high-temperature shearing and pelletizing using a twin-screw machine. Compared to ordinary silicone masterbatch, Xiangxi’s silicone masterbatch is more easily dispersed. Not only that, it can also significantly improve common problems such as white spots and non plasticization in the production process of plastic and rubber products. Better fluidity, demolding ability, wear resistance, lubrication, and smoothness are necessary to have a smaller impact on material mechanics.

 

Characteristics of silicone masterbatch

Xiangxi New Materials Co., Ltd. has introduced foreign technology and processes, focusing on the research and development of ultra-high molecular weight silicone masterbatches. The molecular weight has reached the level of imported production, breaking through the current defect of low molecular weight of domestic polysiloxanes. It has better dispersibility and stability in plastics and rubber.

  1. High wear resistance: Silicone masterbatch has excellent wear resistance and can resist wear in various harsh environments.
  2. Good chemical stability: Silicone masterbatch has excellent chemical corrosion resistance and can maintain stability in various acidic and alkaline environments.
  3. Good processing performance: Silicone masterbatch is easy to process and can be mixed with other materials to improve the overall performance of the product.
  4. Environmental protection: Silicone masterbatch is non-toxic and harmless, meets environmental requirements, and is environmentally friendly.

Performance of silicone masterbatch

Wear resistance: The wear resistance principle of silicone masterbatch is mainly due to its molecular structure containing a large amount of organic polysiloxanes, which have excellent lubrication and wear resistance. In applications such as plastic products, rubber products, and coatings, silicone masterbatch can effectively improve the wear resistance and scratch resistance of products, and extend their service life. The silicone masterbatch has undergone special processing and exhibits excellent wear resistance. The wear resistance test results in different environments show that its wear resistance performance is significantly better than other similar products.

 

Chemical corrosion resistance:

2.1 Silicone masterbatch has excellent resistance to various acidic and alkaline environments, can maintain stability, and is not easily subjected to chemical corrosion. In addition to excellent resistance to acidic and alkaline environments.

2.2 Silicone masterbatch also exhibits good resistance to various organic solvents. This means that in fields such as coatings and inks, silicone masterbatch can maintain its stability and functionality, and will not be dissolved or damaged by solvents.

2.3 Silicone masterbatch also has good oxidation resistance, which can maintain its stability and functionality even in harsh environments such as high temperature and humidity. This characteristic enables silicone masterbatch to maintain its original performance during high-temperature processing, without failure due to oxidation.

2.4 Finally, it also has excellent weather resistance and can resist damage caused by natural factors such as UV, ozone, and temperature changes. This enables silicone masterbatch to maintain long-term performance stability in outdoor applications such as construction, automotive, and other fields.

 

Processing performance:

Silicone masterbatch has good processing performance and can be mixed with other materials to improve the overall performance of the product. Meanwhile, its processing temperature and cooling speed requirements are relatively low, which helps to improve production efficiency.

3.1 Improving flowability: Silicone masterbatch can effectively improve the flowability of thermoplastic, rubber and other materials, reduce their melt viscosity, increase melt flow rate, and thus facilitate the processing of injection molding, extrusion molding and other processes.

3.2 Improving dispersibility: Silicone masterbatch has good dispersibility, which can improve the dispersion of fillers in thermoplastic, rubber and other materials, making the fillers more evenly dispersed in the matrix, thereby improving the performance and quality of the material.

3.3 Enhanced filling ability: Silicone masterbatch can be used as a filler in thermoplastic, rubber and other materials to improve the mechanical properties, wear resistance, and other properties of the material. Meanwhile, silicone masterbatch can also be used in conjunction with other fillers such as calcium carbonate and talc powder to further enhance the filling effect.

3.4 Reducing processing energy consumption: As silicone masterbatch can effectively improve the processing performance of materials such as thermoplastic and rubber, it can reduce energy consumption and improve production efficiency during the processing.

3.5 Simplified processing technology: The processing performance of silicone masterbatch can also simplify the processing technology. For example, in the mixing process of rubber products, adding an appropriate amount of silicone masterbatch can improve the fluidity of rubber, make the mixing more uniform, and improve the quality and performance of the products.

Silicone additive – halogen-free cables.

Silicone masterbatch can significantly improve the flame retardant performance of cables. In low smoke halogen-free cables, silicone masterbatch can be used together with metal hydrates as a flame retardant, and its effect is more significant. Experiments have shown that adding an appropriate amount of silicone masterbatch can significantly improve the oxygen index of cables, effectively reduce combustion speed, and form a layer of silica covering film on the combustion surface to isolate the entry of fresh air, thereby achieving better flame retardant effect.

One important characteristic of silicone masterbatch is its smoke-free and low smoke performance. Therefore, adding silicone masterbatch to low smoke halogen-free cables can reduce the smoke density of cables during combustion, reduce the smoke generated by cables in fires, and effectively reduce the harm of smoke to human health and environmental pollution caused by fires.

Silicone masterbatch can also improve the physical properties of cables. In low smoke halogen-free cables, silicone masterbatch can be mixed with other materials to improve the physical properties of the cable, such as flexibility, wear resistance, and weather resistance. In addition, silicone masterbatch can also serve as an internal lubricant, reducing the friction coefficient of cables in the production process and improving production efficiency.
