Liquid Color Masterbatch
Liquid colorant system with precise dosing, superior dispersion and production efficiency.
Product Overview
Liquid color masterbatch delivers pigment in a liquid carrier for precise automatic metering, excellent dispersion and rapid color changes. It is an efficient choice for high-volume production demanding precision, speed and reduced waste — especially in film, fiber and precision injection molding.
What Is Liquid Color Masterbatch?
Liquid color masterbatch suspends pigment (30%–60%) in a liquid polymer carrier, metered directly into the process by precision pumps. This eliminates the solid carrier resin, enables faster color changes and delivers excellent dispersion even in film and fiber. The liquid form also allows rapid color adjustments without interrupting production.
Key Benefits of Liquid Color Masterbatch
- Precise automatic metering at 0.1%–2% for accurate color control
- Excellent dispersion quality with no agglomeration or specks
- Rapid color change in under 5 minutes
- Reduced material waste and lower inventory cost
- Compatible with all polymer types and processing methods
- Consistent color even at very low addition rates
- Integrated metering machines for full-line automation
- Lower energy consumption than pellet masterbatch compounding
Technical Highlights
MHK Color liquid systems offer 30%–60% pigment content, 0.1%–2% dosing rate and color change in under 5 minutes. Our colorant metering machines integrate directly into the production line for continuous, hands-free color delivery.
How to Choose the Right Liquid Color System
Choosing the right liquid color system depends on your throughput and color flexibility needs.
- For large-volume long runs, choose a fixed liquid color formulation
- For frequent color changes, choose a multi-pump metering system
- For film and fiber, prioritize high-dispersion pigment grades
- For automation, integrate metering machines with the extruder
- For cost control, balance pigment concentration against dosing rate
Typical Applications
Liquid color masterbatch is used in injection molding, blow molding, film extrusion, sheet extrusion and profile extrusion — especially valuable for high-volume production where shorter color-change times directly increase throughput.
