Polymer Additives
Crodamide™ ER
Primary amide additive from a vegetable source. It is an extremely effective slip agent in polyolefin films, and is the preferred amide for use in LDPE, LLPDE and PP due to its good oxidative stability, low volatility and excellent slip performance. Addition levels of 1000 ppm can be used to obtain a CoF as low as 0.1 in LDPE film.
