Moisture Masterbatch

A moisture masterbatch, also called a desiccant or anti-moisture masterbatch, is an additive that absorbs moisture from plastic materials during processing, preventing defects like holes, cracks, and foam.

How it works

• Moisture absorption: The desiccant masterbatch contains active desiccating agents that bond with and remove water molecules from the plastic melt during processing.
• Defect prevention: This process prevents the moisture from turning into steam and creating issues like blisters, silver streaks, fisheyes, and poor surface finish in the final product.
• Improved product quality: By eliminating moisture, it helps maintain the integrity of the plastic, improves its strength and surface gloss, and allows for the increased use of recycled or degraded materials.
