02 — Plastics
Raviputra Carbon's plastic grades significantly reduce the use of thinning agents like wax and aromatic oils. These grades are widely employed in the manufacturing of conductive packaging, films, fibres, mouldings, pipes, and semi-conductive cable compounds.
Applications include water tanks, refuse sacks, industrial bags, photographic containers, agriculture mulch film, stretch wrap, and thermoplastic moulding for automotive, electrical and electronics, household appliances, and blow-moulded containers. Raviputra Carbon plastic grades offer enhanced performance, environmental friendliness, and reduced reliance on traditional thinning agents — making them an ideal choice for manufacturers seeking both performance and sustainability.
Key plastic application areas:
- Films and flexible packaging — agriculture mulch film, stretch wrap, refuse sacks, industrial bags
- Pipes and profiles — PE and PP pipe compounds for water, gas, and telecom ducting
- Water storage tanks — blow-moulded and rotationally moulded containers
- Automotive thermoplastics — interior and exterior moulded parts
- Electrical and electronics — housings, connectors, junction boxes
- Household appliances — washing machine drums, refrigerator liners, vacuum cleaner housings
03 — Masterbatch
Raviputra Carbon is widely used in masterbatch formulations due to its excellent dispersion properties and high carbon content. As a carbon black pigment, it enhances the colour strength and opacity of plastics, paints, and inks. The fine particle size of Raviputra Carbon ensures uniform distribution, resulting in consistent colouring and improved product performance.
Its high tinting strength enables manufacturers to achieve desired shades with lower dosage levels, reducing production costs. Moreover, Raviputra Carbon offers good UV resistance, contributing to the durability and longevity of end products. Overall, Raviputra Carbon is a versatile additive that enhances the aesthetic and functional properties of masterbatch formulations.
Key benefits for masterbatch manufacturers:
- High colour strength and deep black opacity
- Excellent dispersion — eliminates streaking and surface defects
- Superior UV resistance
- Lower cost-in-use — reduces loading levels
- RP-665 compliant with EU 10/2011 (food contact), REACH
04 — Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Compounds
Raviputra Carbon is meticulously produced to offer a wide range of electrical characteristics, ranging from insulating to conductive properties. This makes it highly suitable for various applications, including electronic packaging, safety applications, and automotive parts.
The versatility of Raviputra Carbon enables it to meet the specific electrical requirements of these products, ensuring optimal performance and reliability across the full conductivity spectrum.
Conductivity range:
- Insulating grade (Resistivity > 10¹² Ω·cm) — standard electronic component packaging, electrical insulation sleeves, and general-purpose plastic housings requiring UV protection or pigmentation
- Anti-static / Semi-conductive grade (10⁶ – 10¹⁰ Ω·cm) — ESD-sensitive IC trays, chip carriers, PCB handling trays, safety flooring, conveyor belting in explosive atmospheres, and protective workwear
- Conductive grade (Resistivity < 10³ Ω·cm) — fully conductive packaging for sensitive electronics, automotive fuel tanks and fuel lines, hazardous material transport pipes, and industrial anti-static rollers
Industry applications:
- Electronic packaging — IC trays, wafer carriers, HDD packaging, PCB transport systems
- Safety applications — anti-static footwear soles, cleanroom flooring, ATEX-zone protective equipment
- Automotive parts — fuel system components, under-bonnet hosing, EMI shielding housings, interior trim
05 — High-Performance Coatings
Raviputra Carbon finds extensive applications in the field of coatings, providing benefits such as pigmentation, conductivity, and UV protection. It is widely utilised in various coating applications, including automotive, marine, aerospace, decorative, wood, and industrial coatings.
The distinctive UV protection properties of Raviputra Carbon make it an excellent choice for surface treatment purposes. By incorporating Raviputra Carbon into coatings, manufacturers can enhance the durability, appearance, and protective capabilities of their products across a diverse range of industries.
Core functional benefits:
- Deep black pigmentation — high jetness and undertone control for premium decorative and industrial aesthetics
- Electrical conductivity — for EMI shielding coatings, anti-static floor finishes, and electrostatic spray application
- UV protection and surface treatment — outstanding UV absorption extending coating service life in outdoor exposure
- Corrosion barrier performance — reinforces the barrier properties of protective coatings on metal substrates
06 — Toners & Printing Inks
The consistent particle size distribution of Raviputra Carbon makes it exceptionally well-suited for applications in newsprint ink and printer toner ink. Its uniformity ensures smooth and precise printing, resulting in high-quality output.
Additionally, the richness and deep black colour of Raviputra Carbon further enhances its desirability for leading newspaper printing presses.
