Antimicrobial

Many viruses can survive on plastic surfaces, posing a risk of transmission. However, plastic parts can be treated to trap and inhibit the replication of viruses. SUKANO® Antiviral masterbatch helps you to prevent infection, replication, and growth of viruses and bacteria on the surface of plastic parts, enhancing safety and hygiene. 

SUKANO® Antiviral masterbatch helps you to prevent infection, replication, and growth of viruses and bacteria on the surface of plastic parts, enhancing safety and hygiene. 

Our high-performance Antiviral additive is directly integrated into the polymer, resulting in a robust antibacterial effect that remains effective throughout the product’s lifetime. The additive is consistently active on the surface of the product, without being released into the environment. 

Remove the risk of microbiological or cross-contamination by integrating our Antimicrobial masterbatches in your products. They offer immediate functionality and long-lasting activity without the need for coatings, enhancing the efficiency of your processes.

UV Polymer Protection

Polymers exposed to UV rays over extended periods become brittle and their color or visual effects fade, compromising both the material's durability and aesthetic qualities.

With SUKANO® UV additive masterbatches for outdoor applications, you gain a robust solution to these challenges. They protect your sheet applications by preventing microcrack formation, thereby maintaining the polymer’s original optical properties such as clarity and gloss for a longer duration. Additionally, they help retain the polymer’s mechanical properties and overall product functionalities. 

Our broad portfolio offers customizable UV Polymer Protection, considering the targeted outdoor lifetime of the product and the requirements of the geographical location of the application.

Our masterbatches offer polymer light protection, extending the lifespan of your end applications while preserving the resin's visual and mechanical properties. Designed as a masterbatch on the same resin carrier, our products provide compatibility and precise control over performance.

Infrared (IR) Absorber

If your selected polymer lacks essential infrared absorption properties for effective thermal management, SUKANO® Infrared Absorber is the solution for you. It enables heat-protection and efficient solar heat management in the automotive and building industry.

Our Infrared Absorbers modify the light radiation absorbance from near-IR (700~800nm) to NIR wavelength (2500nm) without affecting the passage of visible light. This reduces the buildup of heat while maintaining excellent material transparency and clarity.

The Absorber masterbatches are well dispersed throughout your product and serve as an effective engineering solution in sheets for roof panels and window films, helping to control solar energy.

With Infrared Absorber masterbatches, you protect surfaces and applications from light radiation for efficient heat control, keeping interiors and buildings cool.

Laser Engraving

Laser engraving can be the perfect solution for your marking needs if your selected polymer does not inherently provide the necessary engraving properties. With SUKANO® Laser Engraving masterbatches, you can achieve durable markings on your material. Our solution makes abrasion-resistant labeling possible with your chosen resin and specific end application.

Achieve high visibility and contrast with minimal color effect in your black images, letters, and numbers on white or transparent polyester. With our masterbatches, you precisely engrave films and injection molded parts. They are perfect for durable engraving of numbers on credit cards, expiration dates on food packaging, and other applications.

Together, we can develop a solution that works seamlessly with your existing laser equipment and polymer – for precise laser markings and enhanced branding.

Antistatic

Polymers with high surface resistivity are prone to accumulating static electricity, which can be problematic in various applications. To address this, antistatic treatment is necessary.

Incorporate SUKANO® Antistatic masterbatches into the material to create a durable and efficient humidity-absorbing layer on the film surface. This layer enhances electrostatic properties – preventing the accumulation of dust and other particles on the end application.

Prevent the buildup of static charges in your application, enable clean surfaces and prevent electrical discharge with SUKANO® Antistatic masterbatches.

Flame Retardant

To mitigate fire risks, SUKANO® Flame Retardant masterbatches delay the ignition time of materials and slow down the spreading of flames.

Our portfolio offers Flame Retardant masterbatches for fibers and high-demand electrical, electronic, and household applications. You benefit from tailor-made solutions, giving you the freedom to choose the best polymer for your specific needs. All our Flame Retardant formulations are halogen-free, offering lower environmental impact. With our customizable products, you meet the flammability standards of specific end applications while ensuring property retention.

Using a masterbatch solution for flame retardance allows you to precisely fine-tune the functionality, offering greater flexibility and control compared to resins with inherent flame retardancy.
