Understanding masterbatches: From compounding to the final product

Inscripción

Presentación

Masterbatches are a specific compound that can give special properties to final products, since stability passing through processing and final performance properties, their effectiveness can be affected by different factors, controlling them will allow masterbatchers, compounders and converters to obtain the best performance in their products, saving time and energy and being more competitive.

Objetivos

The objectives of this webinar are to understand which factors are controlling the final performance of the masterbatches that we are using. Dispersion, rheology, percentage of loading, processing steps, quality control etc… and how to design and use it appropriately.

Dirigido a

This training because of the masterbatch implication in value chain is aimed at Masterbatchers, compounders, converters, and even raw material producers such us: pigments, fillers, waxes or polymer producers. It can help to improve masterbatch production stage as well as appropriated use when diluting during converting.

Priority registration will be given to industrial companies and clients associated to AIMPLAS.

Licenciado en Ciencias Químicas por la Universitat de Valencia en 1997.

Con más de 21 años de experiencia en AIMPLAS como investigador en compounding y formulación de plásticos. Ha desarrollado proyectos colaborando con empresas a nivel regional, nacional y europeo, en temáticas tan diversas como: nanomateriales, bioplásticos, retardantes de llama, bioplásticos, fibras naturales, conductividad eléctrica o reciclado.

Tiene una experiencia de más de 21 años en el procesado de todo tipo de polímeros, desde "comodities”, pasando por técnicos o bioplásticos hasta polímeros de altas prestaciones. Ha impartido más de 3000 horas de clases en cursos relacionados con compounding, aditivos, cargas o inyección y también ha participado como ponente y organizador en numerosos eventos nacionales e internacionales.

-----

Degree in Chemistry from the University of Valencia in 1997

Working at AIMPLAS (the plastic technology center in Valencia / Spain) since 2000, first in injection molding and extrusion and a few years later starting the compounding department for he was head from 2009 to 2019. From 2019 to 2021 he led the mechanical recycling group and is currently the Compounding technology Leader. His main role at AIMPLAS has been to develop R & D & I projects and technical consulting with companies at national and international level on topics such as: Technical compounds, Bioplastics, PVC formulation, Nanomaterials, electrical / thermal conductivity, natural fibres or recycling among others and from the point of view of consultancy failure analysis, equipment start-up, purchasing and selection advice, etc ... as well as training related to compound manufacturing, formulation, recycling, additivation etc ... He has taught more than 3,000 hours of classes in courses related to compounding, additives, fillers or injection and has also participated as a speaker and organizer in numerous national and international events.
