Description

n-(2-Hydroxyethyl)Docosanamide is a high-purity, long-chain fatty acid amide derivative, also known as erucamide ethanol. This compound serves as a highly effective internal slip agent and anti-blocking additive for polyolefin films. It is essential for manufacturers in the plastics and polymer industries seeking to improve processing efficiency and enhance the surface properties of their finished products, ensuring reduced friction and improved clarity.

Application

• Primary internal slip and anti-blocking agent for polyethylene (LDPE, LLDPE) and polypropylene (PP) films.
• Surface modifier to reduce coefficient of friction (COF) in plastic packaging films, improving machinability on high-speed filling lines.
• Additive for masterbatch formulations to ensure uniform dispersion and consistent performance in final polymer products.
• Processing aid to minimize film sticking (blocking) during production and storage, particularly in high-humidity environments.
• Component in specialty coatings and inks where surface lubrication and release properties are required.
• Used in the production of synthetic fibers and filaments to modify surface characteristics.
