6. White pigments

4. Antistatics

3. Modifiers

All listed White Masterbatches are specially designed to obtain high opacity, gloss and whiteness index.

5. Slip-Antistatics combined

All listed Antistatic and Slip/Antistatic Masterbatches contain only additives of a high molecular weight. They therefore have low vapour pressure and generate less smoke at the die and in the TDO of the production line.

7. White agents, pearlized

All listed Pearlized Masterbatches are manufactured with well selected raw mate-rials. They are accurately dispersed and have a high pellet density as well as a low moisture content.

Polymer Modifier masterbatches are used widely to enhance the many useful pro-perties of BOPP films. Typical applications include cigarette shrink wrap films, twist films, barrier films and labels.
