Akzo Nobel's slip and antiblocking additives are lubricants, migrating to the polymer surface, providing excellent slip effect and good antiblocking performance. They are mainly used in polyethylene and polypropylene. These additives offer solutions to processing problems, caused by internal friction and tackiness of polymers, including slipstick effects, sticking of film layers to each other (blocking), mold contamination and excessive equipment wear.
In elastomers, our slip and antiblocking agents will act as a processing aid, thus improving the mixing, extrusion, and calendaring behavior of elastomeric compounds.
Our high purity refined slip and antiblocking additives are offered under the trademark Armoslip®. In certain regions we also have available technical grades which are marketed as Armid®.
