NIR-Detectable Black Masterbatch: Enabling Sorting and Recycling of Black Plastics
The plastics industry is actively seeking solutions to address the recycling challenges posed by black plastics. Traditional near-infrared (NIR) sorting systems rely on detecting reflected spectral signals to identify polymer types. However, carbon-black pigments absorb these signals, making black plastics effectively “invisible” to NIR sorting equipment and preventing their accurate identification and separation for recycling.
Our Solution: High-Precision Sorting for Black Plastics
We have developed specialized NIR-detectable black masterbatches through precise formulation design. These solutions enable NIR sorting equipment to successfully “see” and identify black plastics made from PP, PE, ABS, and other polymers. We provide readily available masterbatch samples for testing and validation with your sorting systems.
Certification and Collaborative Innovation
Our NIR-detectable products are certified by SOAR, a recognized Chinese authority for spectral testing, ensuring reliable identification of black PP, PE, and ABS plastics by NIR sorting technology. We maintain a strategic partnership with HAIBAO, a leading sorting equipment manufacturer, allowing us to continuously address recycling challenges and test cost-effective solutions through collaborative research and development.
