The primary purpose of UV masterbatch is to provide UV protection to the underlying materials, such as plastics, coatings, or substrates. When incorporated into laminates and coatings, UV masterbatch absorbs and dissipates UV radiation, preventing it from degrading or damaging the material.

Laminates and coatings that contain UV masterbatch are less susceptible to UV-induced degradation. This means they have a longer lifespan when exposed to outdoor or high-UV environments. This is crucial in applications such as outdoor signage, automotive coatings, or architectural finishes.

UV masterbatch enhances the overall durability of laminates and coatings. It helps prevent surface cracking, chalking, and brittleness, which can occur when materials are exposed to prolonged UV radiation.
