Another important application of HTM-B is its role as a pigment dispersant in color masterbatch. It is well-known that most pigments for plastic are expensive. Hence how to improve the covering power of pigment is a concern of color masterbatch manufacturers. The wave length, color and amount of the light absorbed, reflected and scattered by varied pigments are different. The area of pigment that can be used for scattered light determines the service efficiency of color. Almost all pigments have conglomeration or flocculation in applications more of less and the service efficiency of pigment will be attenuated due to the reduction in the scattering area. Research and practice show that HTM-B may facilitate the dispersion of pigment during the manufacture of color masterbatch, and the addition of HTM-B does affect the color tone of the pigment in products thanks to the fact that the light refraction factor of HTM-B is similar to common polymers. Repeated applications and practices indicate that pigment consumption in color masterbatch grains may be reduced by 10%. In addition, the X-ray non-transparency of HTM-B allows it to be used for the manufacture of the raw materials of toys for children (easy to identify after accidental swallowing).
