Applications & Use Cases
- ▸ Primary slip agent migrated to the surface of polyethylene and polypropylene film to lower the coefficient of friction and improve film handling, winding, and bag-opening.
- ▸ Anti-block and mold-release additive in blown and cast film, sheet, and injection-molded polyolefin parts to reduce surface tack and ejection drag.
- ▸ Internal/external lubricant in masterbatch and compound formulations, typically dosed at 500-2000 ppm to control slip without excessive bloom.
- ▸ Processing aid in extrusion of HDPE, LLDPE, and PP to reduce die buildup and improve throughput.
- ▸ Slip and anti-friction additive in food-contact polyolefin packaging where an FDA-compliant amide grade is specified.
