Description

Erucamide CAS NO 3061-72-1 is a high-purity, long-chain primary fatty acid amide derived from erucic acid. It serves as a highly effective slip and anti-blocking agent, modifying surface properties to reduce friction and prevent adhesion in polymer films. This additive is essential for manufacturers in the plastics, packaging, and masterbatch industries seeking to enhance processing efficiency and final product performance.

Application

• Primary slip and anti-blocking agent for polyolefin films (LDPE, LLDPE, HDPE, PP) used in packaging.
• Internal lubricant and process aid for improving mold release and surface finish in injection molding and extrusion processes.
• Key additive in plastic masterbatches and compounds to ensure consistent surface properties.
• Used in the production of synthetic fibers and filaments to reduce fiber-to-fiber friction.
• Acts as a water repellent and lubricant in inks, coatings, and adhesives formulations.
• Employed as a foam control agent and dispersant in various industrial applications.
