Overview
Anti-rodent Masterbatches are functional additive concentrates designed to protect
plastic products, cables, and packaging materials from rodent and pest damage.
By incorporating rodent-repellent agents into the polymer matrix, these
masterbatches deter gnawing and chewing, ensuring the durability,
safety, and longevity of products in residential, industrial, and
outdoor environments.
Physical & Chemical Properties
- Active
Ingredients: Natural or synthetic repellents, often bittering agents
or bio-repellent compounds.
- Carrier
Resin: PE, PP, PVC, PET or universal carriers compatible with
standard polymer systems.
- Appearance:
Free-flowing granules, typically off-white or lightly colored.
- Thermal
Stability: Designed to withstand polymer processing temperatures up to
300 °C.
- Odor
& Taste: Repellent agents are non-toxic to humans but discourage
rodent activity.
- Durability:
Long-lasting protection throughout the product’s lifecycle without affecting
physical properties.
Applications
- Electrical
& Communication Cables: Protects insulated wires and fiber optic
cables from rodent damage.
- Packaging
Materials: Bags, films, and wraps for warehouses, food storage, and
outdoor applications.
- Pipes
& Conduits: Plumbing, irrigation, and construction pipes in
rodent-prone areas.
- Consumer
Products: Furniture, garden equipment, and outdoor installations.
- Industrial
Equipment & Machinery: Protective housings, covers, and panels
vulnerable to gnawing.
Processing Techniques
- Extrusion
– wires, cables, pipes, and films.
