Application：

Armoslip CP provides excellent slip effect and moderate anti-blocking performance. It is the most frequently used slip additive for PE film applications. When Armoslip CP is thoroughly mixed with the polymer it greatly improves processing behavior and end-performance by reducing friction and adhesion forces between polymer and processing equipment and polymer to polymer surfaces. Due to a continuous migration a thin film of Armoslip CP is formed on the surface of the finished product and this provides the excellent slip effect and moderate anti-blocking performance.

It is generally preferred in standard formulations due to its quick migration and low cost. The mechanical and optical properties of the endproduct are not altered significantly.

Armoslip CP can be applied in a wide range of thermoplastic polymers. The addition level varies from 0.05 to 0.3% depending on the slip effect needed and the presence of other additives.

Armoslip CP facilitates over-printing and wet-printing when incorporated into ink formulations. These inks have improved slip and anti-blocking characteristics, along with better adhesion and resistance to both scratching and rub-off without undue increase of viscosity.

Armoslip CP may be used to improve the penetration, flexibility and slip or seal properties of wax and resin coated paper and paperboard.

Armoslip CP also may be used in adhesives, coatings, closures and EVA copolymers; as defoamer in paper and paperboard manufacturing; as a dye solubilizer; and as surface lubricant in the manufacture of metal articles.

Armoslip CP show uniform particle size, providing excellent flow behavior, enabling easy dosing and mixing.

Armoslip CP is preferred for more demanding applications, as it offers high purity, low color and very low water content compared to other oleamides.

Storage：

PMC BIOGENIX recommends to store Armoslip CP powder in a dry well-ventilated place at 25°C (77°F) max. Prolonged storage over 35°C (95°F) can cause some caking and discoloration.
