For customers requiring the benefits of an Erucamide or Oleamide based slip additive in their film manufacturing process, there is no better choice in additive concentrate on the market today than Polyvel RE25 (Erucamide based) & RO25 (Oleamide based).

Both concentrates are 25% active slip additive, with no fillers. They are engineered for superb dispersion and superior slip characteristics.

The very appealing economics of using a high load slip concentrate compared to use of a low load (5% loaded) alternative, combined with exceptional performance characteristics make Polyvel RE25 & RO25 concentrates an excellent choice.

LDPE, LLDPE & PP films have a high coefficient of friction, which leads to these films adhering to other films, as well as sections of the same film being produced and metal surfaces contacted during production. Low levels of Erucamide or Oleamide decrease the films coefficient of friction, reducing and eliminating this sticking.

In films that are processed at temperatures up to 220° C, RO25 is recommended, as Erucamide is much more thermally stable, RE25 is recommended for processing temperatures above 220° C.
