Desiccant & Antigas Masterbatch

What is Desiccant / Anti-Gas Masterbatch?

We produce high-performance anti-gas and desiccant systems to eliminate pores, voids, and surface defects encountered in plastic processing, especially in the use of recycled polymers and moisture-sensitive raw materials. The high-purity active calcium oxide components in our formulations chemically bind the moisture within the polymer melt, preventing gas and vapor formation at high temperatures. These series, prepared at a microscopic dispersion level using advanced engineering techniques in our production facilities, completely eliminate problems such as silver streaking, fish eyes, and tearing in processes like film extrusion and injection molding.

We offer professional solutions that maximize production efficiency in recycling lines while ensuring excellent surface smoothness and mechanical integrity in your products.

Recommended Dosage

  • In standard productions with low moisture content: 1.0% - 2.0%
  • In film extrusion (to prevent tearing and fish eyes): 1.5% - 3.0%
  • In processing high-moisture and recycled (PCR/PIR) materials: 2.0% - 5.0%

Applications and Effects on the Final Product

Applications / Application Areas

  • All film and pipe production using recycled (r-PE, r-PP) raw material
  • Lines using masterbatches with high calcite (CaCO₃) or talc filler content
  • Garbage bag, agricultural film, tarpaulin, raffia sack and geotextile production
  • Injection molding, blow molding and sheet extrusion
  • Processing of raw materials stored in humid climates or open warehouses

Affected Properties / Effects on the Final Product

  • Fish-eye and lens defects: Completely eliminates moisture-induced micro-bubbles and perforations on the film surface.
  • Silver streaks: Stops the silver/white flow marks formed by moisture evaporation on the surface of injection molded parts.
  • Tear and puncture strength: Because it prevents micro-pores forming in the film and pipe wall, it preserves the pressure and tensile strength of the product.
  • Surface smoothness and gloss: Removes roughness and orange peel appearance caused by outgassing.
  • Wall thickness uniformity: Keeps the film bubble stable, providing equal micron thickness at every point.

Effect on the Process and Production Line

  • Eliminates the need for hours of pre-drying (oven drying) of raw materials, providing significant electricity and time savings.
  • Prevents extruder head pressure fluctuations, filter clogging and film breaks.
