Introduction

Slip additives offer a cost-effective solution to the problem of friction in polymers. Requiring only very low addition levels, typically 1000 ppm, slip additives reduce friction and allow ease of polymer handling and processing. The use of slip additives in plastics is a practical requirement for both the manufacturer and end-product consumer. High friction can result in difficulties with winding of film rolls, bag production and packaging operations.
