PLA Antiblock, Slip, and Release Aid
Polyvel’s VB-L01 masterbatch contains a small particle antiblock agent in a PLA carrier. VB-L01 is optimized for maximum antiblock and clarity of blown and cast film. The masterbatch is FDA compliant for food contact applications.
CM-L01 decreases PLA film’s high coefficient of friction and therefore reduces or eliminates adhesion between other film or metal surfaces during production.
Benefits of VB-L01 and CM-L01 include:
· No fillers used
· PLA (polylactic acid) carrier. No dilution of PLA sheet material
· Excellent dispersion in film and sheet
· Convenient use: mix pellets with PLA pellets or feed separately
· Can improve extrusion throughput
Custom formulating is available on request for other additives in PLA.
