The garbage bag is a popular item in daily life. The materials to make garbage bag is mainly plastic resin. However, with the development of the calcium carbonate industry, nowadays, most plastic bags and garbage bag manufacturers also use Masterbatch as a cost reduction and coloring solution. Let’s find out the masterbatch for garbage bag in this article.
1. WHY MASTERBATCH FOR GARBAGE BAG IS WIDELY USED?
1.1. Advantages of filler masterbatch for garbage bag
By using masterbatch for garbage bag, the manufacturer has these benefits:
Cost reduction: Since the filler masterbatch price is lower than the resin price, by mixing filler masterbatch with resin in garbage bag production, the manufacturer can reduce production costs.
Increase productivity: improve efficiency and results by increasing output power with temperature and volume. When the film's physical ratio is high, the filler masterbatch aids in lowering it.
1.2. Strong points of using color masterbatch for garbage bag
Below are two main reasons manufacturers choose to use masterbatch for garbage bag:
Coloring solution: Color masterbatch is used to add colors to garage bags.
Color masterbatch has outrageous benefits compared to pigment:
Color concentration: Color masterbatch is more compatible with plastic mixtures, allowing for direct addition in the manufacturing process without resulting in uneven color concentration. Meanwhile, pigment powder needs to be suspended in liquid, which can lead to uneven color distribution.
Storage condition: Color masterbatch is produced in pellet/ granule form, which is easier and more convenient for storage, transportation, and usage.
1.3. Why additives masterbatch is used for garbage bags?
Additive masterbatch is used to enhance the manufacturing process. The additive masterbatch has different types with different functions.

2. TYPES OF MASTERBATCH FOR GARBAGE BAG
2.1. PE filler masterbatch for garbage bag
PE filler masterbatch for garbage bags is produced with the materials of CaCO3 powder (Calcium carbonate powder), PE carrier resin, and additives.
2.2. Color masterbatch for garbage bag
The most popular color masterbatch for garbage bag is the black masterbatch. It has different content of carbon black pigment, depending on the client’s requirement. Normally, they ask for from 20-40% carbon black for the garbage bag.
Besides black masterbatch, garbage bag manufacturers also produce garbage bags with other colors. These color masterbatches are made from plastic resin, color pigment, and additives. They are used at a rate of from 2% to 5% to get the expected result in plastic bag production.

2.3. Additives masterbatch for garbage bag
The functional additives are added to the garbage bag materials to enhance the quality of the final product.
For example:
Bio-Degradable OXO Additives: Many governments in different countries have already requested that plastic bags be disposable and compostable.
Antioxidants and Antistatic Agents: Masterbatch can be combined with additives such as antioxidants to improve the film's resistance to oxidation and degradation over time. Antistatic agents can also be used to reduce static charges on the film's surface, which is especially useful in packaging to prevent dust attraction.
Slip and anti-block properties: Films frequently require specific surface properties when handling and processing. Slip agents, which reduce friction between film layers, and anti-block agents, which prevent film surfaces from sticking together, are examples of masterbatch additives.
