LEOMINSTER, Mass., August 28, 2025 – Modern Dispersions Inc., a leading global supplier of thermoplastic compounds and concentrates, will announce the introduction of new masterbatch solutions that raise material performance at the upcoming K 2025 exhibition (Hall 5/C06-01) which runs Oct. 8-15 in Düsseldorf, Germany.
At K show, MDI will announce that it now offers PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances)-free black masterbatches as an alternative to the standard fluoropolymer processing aid containing masterbatches. The new PFAS-free black masterbatches are targeted for the film, wire and cable, and irrigation tape markets.
The company has also launched a new black masterbatch grade called GM-540-7UVS. The new grade meets the industry’s GM13 standard for use in geomembranes. It is a 40% carbon black polyolefin masterbatch containing a specific additive package which protects the geomembrane from long-term heat and UV exposure.
For the coloring of nylon, MDI is also offering its NY-40NG grade which is a 40% nigrosine dye masterbatch. The masterbatch offers deep jet-black color with minimal impact on physical properties in nylon compounds. Key targeted applications include automotive and electronics. All of the new masterbatch solutions are commercially available.
Modern Dispersions will also showcase its extensive product portfolio including black masterbatches, wood-polymer composites (WPC), and color concentrates. The company has decades of experience in producing a wide variety of black masterbatches, concentrates, and compounds that provide superior UV protection, FDA compliance, high-jetness, blue-tone, high loadings, low-tint performance, and customizability.
Color concentrate and color compound products are designed to meet market demands and end-use requirements. Capabilities include improved batch-to-batch consistency and film grade organic and inorganic pigment dispersions. The company has extensive color and formulation expertise to deliver consistent products for automotive, construction, packaging, film, molded parts, and engineered plastics. These materials are used to manufacture products such as agricultural film, electrostatic dissipative housings used in electronic packaging, cell phones, fabrics, and household items.
