Slip agents work by introducing a lubricious coating layer to the polymer surface. Both migratory and non-migratory systems are available. Wells plastics have a broad product offering of slip additives including high purity, low organoleptic grades.
In polyolefin film applications Wells Plastics offer migratory slip masterbatch grades able to give high slip films with a CoF of around 0.1. Additionally, there are speciality slip masterbatches that can give a controlled medium slip film with a CoF of around 0.3. These are particularly useful in applications like security and mailing films where excellent adhesive bond strength on the flap sealing strip is required.
In molding applications, slip agents can be used to deliver controlled torque release properties for screw caps and closures as well as an internal mold release agent.
Wells Plastics slip masterbatches can be custom formulated to suit specific applications or polymer types. Combination masterbatches with other additives such as antiblock or antistatic are also available.
