Most of the plastic materials tend to build up static charges in all the cycles of processing and handling. These static charges can be problematic when these charges are accumulated. There are many effects of static charge accumulation & discharge.
1. Dust particles are attracted towards the plastic product.
2. Flamable chemicals and powders packed in plastic containers or bags have huge risk of electrostatic discharge.
3. Thin plastic items stick together because of static attraction.
4. Electronic items may get damaged by the static charges in plastic packaging materials.
Antistatic masterbatch solutions are used to eliminate these risks. These are masterbatches formulated using anti static additive masterbatch technology, usually based on fatty acid ester types, that neutralize surface charges on the polymer.
AddKan Antistatic Masterbatches includes both migrating & non-migrating types. It functions usually in a molecular or multi-molecular layer and attracts water molecules from the atmosphere. The water lowers the surface resistivity from the approximate value of 1014 – 1015 ohms for most polymers (including styrenics and polyolefinics) to 1011- 108 ohms . Normal addition levels of the 10% active content antistatic masterbatch is 3%-5%.
We offer anti static additive masterbatch based on amine derivative agents which performs even under low humid conditions, something many generic antistatic options fail at. Moreover, our blend of multiple antistatic additives creates a long-lasting antistatic masterbatch solution, particularly useful for durable packaging and electronic component housings.
When looking for specialized solutions, choosing the right plastic raw material company ensures better performance, compatibility, and consistency across product batches. A well-formulated antistatic masterbatch is especially critical in industries like electronics, pharmaceuticals, and food packaging, where static can’t be left unchecked.
Whether you’re working with film extrusion or injection molding, working with a plastic raw material company that understands material behavior and environmental exposure is essential to getting reliable antistatic performance.
We welcome you to please speak to our Marketing representatives for your specific requirements. We will be more than happy to cater to your needs.
Yes, many antistatic masterbatches are food-contact approved and safe for use in food-grade packaging, but always confirm compliance with FDA or EU standards based on your region and application.
Performance depends on humidity levels, polymer type, processing temperature, and the dosage level of the anti static additive masterbatch. Selecting the right base polymer compatibility and application method is key for consistent results.
