PRODUCT
INNOSLIP–E Series offers grades of erucamide, an unsaturated primary amide produced from erucic acid derived from vegetable oil. INNOSLIP–E Series is used as a Slip and Anti-Block agent in polyolefin resin production as well as in processing to enhance the quality of end products, all without materially altering the properties of the polymer itself. It is characterized by its low volatility, good heat stability and slow migration.
Erucamide ; (Z)-13-Docosenamide
INNOSLIP–E series functions as a high performing slip agent and good anti-block agent in polyolefin resins, in particular polyethylene and polypropylene for film applications, by migrating to the surface to form a thin layer of external lubrication that adds the slip property.
INNOSLIP–E series reduces problems arising from the inherent tendency of polymers to cause friction and adhere to other surfaces. The addition of slip property aids not only in the initial resin production but also processing of the resins by the end users (e.g. facilitates mold release during injection molding process and reduces coefficient of friction in films).
INNOSLIP–E Series migrates slower than oleamide does because of its larger molecular structure. Such property is necessary for making PE and PP films that need printing, sealing or other surface treatments immediately after extrusion; the slow migration allows time for the surface treatments before forming a layer on the surface.
INNOSLIP–E series has low volatility and high heat stability, making it suitable for use in PE and PP films which are processed under high temperature.
