In the field of food packaging, it is crucial to choose the right plastic material, especially those packaging materials that come into direct contact with food. Hygienic Food Grade plastic masterbatch, especially EVA, ABS, PET black masterbatch, has become the first choice for food packaging materials due to its excellent performance. Here are a few key reasons why they are popular in food packaging:
1. Compliance with food safety standards
Black masterbatch products of plastic materials such as EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate), ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate) usually comply with food safety regulations such as FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) and EU (European Union) standards. This ensures that packaging materials made of these masterbatches will not release harmful substances and ensure food safety.
2. High chemical resistance and non-toxicity
EVA, ABS, PET masterbatches have excellent chemical stability, do not react with ingredients in food, and do not produce toxic byproducts. These properties make these materials safe for food packaging without changing the taste, color or nutritional content of the food.
3. Excellent moisture barrier and gas barrier properties
PET materials are particularly known for their excellent gas barrier properties, which can effectively prevent the influence of external gases such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water vapor on the food inside the package, extending the shelf life of the food. In addition, the moisture barrier provided by these masterbatches helps prevent food from deteriorating due to moisture.
4. Durability and impact resistance
Food packaging materials made of plastic masterbatches such as EVA, ABS, and PET have high durability and impact resistance, which can protect food from physical damage from the external environment during transportation, storage, and sales. This is essential for foods that are stored for a long time or need to be transported over long distances.
5. High plasticity and easy processing
These plastic masterbatches have good thermal processing characteristics and are easy to process into packaging materials of various shapes and thicknesses to meet the needs of different food packaging. At the same time, their plasticity ensures the flexibility of packaging materials in design to meet the ever-changing needs in the food industry.
6. Environmental protection and recyclability
PET, as a widely used food-grade plastic, is highly recyclable. Using recyclable food packaging materials helps reduce environmental pollution and plastic waste, which is in line with the current industry trend of sustainable development and environmental protection.
7. Black masterbatch light protection
Black masterbatch can effectively block ultraviolet rays in the sun and prevent food from oxidizing or deteriorating under the action of light. It is particularly suitable for packaging foods that need to be protected from light, such as oils, dairy products and certain beverages.
EVA, ABS, and PET black masterbatches have become important materials in the food packaging industry due to their food safety, durability, moisture resistance and environmental protection. As consumers' demands for health, environmental protection and food shelf life continue to increase, the position of these food-grade plastic masterbatches in the market will become increasingly important.
