Shanghai Xiaying Plastics secured a patent (CN222245507U) in January 2025 for a modular mixing device that slashes energy use by 25% and ensures 99% ingredient homogeneity in functional masterbatches.
The system’s quantitative dosing structure eliminates batch inconsistencies, crucial for UV-resistant and flame-retardant additives used in electronics and automotive sectors. This breakthrough addresses chronic dispersion challenges in China’s masterbatch industry, where >80% of SMEs rely on outdated equipment. With 27 patents now held, Xiaying aims to license the technology globally, targeting markets in Africa (e.g., South Africa’s R2.5B plastic industry) where masterbatch imports grew 12% .
