1. How much does one ton of antibacterial masterbatch cost?
As people pay more and more attention to antibacterial and antiviral products, products with antibacterial functions are becoming more and more popular. Welcome, the manufacture of antibacterial products is inseparable from antibacterial masterbatch, so how much does the price of antibacterial masterbatch cost per ton?
Generally speaking, the price of antibacterial masterbatch depends on the type of plastic, the plastic antibacterial agent used, the content of the plastic antibacterial agent, etc. The price of different antibacterial masterbatch will also be different:

1. Types of plastics
There are many types of plastics, which can usually be divided into general plastics, engineering plastics and special plastics. Common general plastics include PE, PP, ABS, etc., and engineering plastics include PA, PC, POM, etc. These different types of plastics have different uses and have different prices. For example, the price of plastic PE is 8,000~9,000 yuan/ton. The price of PP is 9,000~10,000 yuan/ton, the price of plastic PE is 8,000~9,000 yuan/ton, and the price of plastic ABS is 13,000~14,000 yuan/ton. These general plastics are characterized by large usage and relatively low prices, so general plastics are antibacterial. The price of masterbatch is relatively low. For example, PE antibacterial masterbatch is generally 100,000 to 150,000 yuan/ton. However, the general price of engineering plastics is relatively high. For example, the price of plastic PA6 is 15,000~16,000 yuan/ton, and the price of plastic PC is 21,000~22,000 yuan/ton. While POM is mostly imported, the price is even higher, with different brands ranging from 25,000 to 35,000 yuan/ton. Between tons, so the price of antibacterial masterbatch for engineering plastics is higher.
2. Types of plastic antibacterial agents
Antibacterial masterbatch is made by mixing the plastic base material and the plastic antibacterial agent evenly and then using a screw machine to make the material. Different types of antibacterial agents can be selected according to different types of plastics, such as general plastics PP, PE, and ABS. Their processing temperatures are low. The plastic antibacterial agents used can be either inorganic antibacterial agents or organic antibacterial agents. However, engineering plastics such as PA and PC have relatively high processing temperatures, reaching over 300°C, and the only plastic antibacterial agents used are inorganic antibacterial agents. Generally, inorganic antibacterial agents such as silver ion antibacterial agents are relatively expensive. Organic antibacterial agents such as quaternary ammonium salts, phenols, and thiazoles are relatively cheap. Therefore, the price of antibacterial masterbatch using inorganic antibacterial agents is higher than that of organic antibacterial agents. The difference between the two is 30,000 to 50,000 yuan/ Tons are normal.
3. Plastic antibacterial agent content
Antibacterial masterbatch is composed of plastic substrate and antibacterial agent. Usually the antibacterial agent content is generally 10%~20%. Because the main cost of antibacterial masterbatch is the cost of the plastic antibacterial agent, the price of antibacterial masterbatch will vary greatly if the antibacterial agent content is different. For example, if the price of the plastic antibacterial agent used is 500 yuan/KG, the price difference between the price of 10% antibacterial masterbatch and the price of 20% antibacterial masterbatch can reach 50,000 yuan/ton.
2. What are the factors that affect the price of antibacterial masterbatch?
The price of antibacterial masterbatch will change according to the market. For antibacterial masterbatch manufacturers, Said that it is crucial to adjust stocking plans and product quotations according to price changes. The main factors affecting the price of antibacterial masterbatch are:
1. Plastic price fluctuations
Like our commonly used antibacterial masterbatch, such as PE antibacterial masterbatch, PP antibacterial masterbatch, ABS antibacterial masterbatch, PC antibacterial masterbatch, these PP, PE, ABS, PC and other plastics are downstream products of petroleum refining, and their prices Positively related to the trend of oil prices, if international crude oil prices fluctuate significantly, plastic prices will inevitably fluctuate significantly. The plastic content ratio of antibacterial masterbatch is more than 80%, so fluctuations in plastic prices will affect the price of antibacterial masterbatch.
2. Price fluctuations of antibacterial agents
Generally, the proportion of antibacterial agents contained in antibacterial masterbatch is 10%~20%, and the antibacterial agents used are Inorganic metal ion antibacterial agents, such as silver ion antibacterial agents. Silver is a precious metal, and its price will fluctuate greatly due to market conditions. Once the price of metallic silver rises sharply, it will inevitably lead to an increase in the price of silver ion antibacterial agents. If organic antibacterial agents are used, the price will be relatively stable, and the price of organic antibacterial agents is cheaper than inorganic silver ion antibacterial agents. Therefore, the price fluctuation of antibacterial agents will affect the price of antibacterial masterbatch.
3. Differences in niche or mass applications
Plastic parts with antibacterial functions on the market are generally made of PP, PE and ABS. Therefore, PP antibacterial masterbatch, PE antibacterial masterbatch, and ABS antibacterial masterbatch are popular antibacterial masterbatch. From the perspective of production capacity and suppliers, they are all surplus, and the price is relatively cheap and stable. However, for some special materials or special uses, such as POM antibacterial masterbatch, PC antibacterial masterbatch or special fiber spinning antibacterial masterbatch, they are niche antibacterial masterbatch, so the price of these antibacterial masterbatch fluctuates greatly.
