SYLOBLOC® Polyethylene Film Antiblocking Agents

Optimize LDPE Film Block Resistance and Clarity with SYLOBLOC®

Polyethylene films are widely used in applications such as packaging, agriculture, and construction due to their durability, flexibility, and ability to resist moisture and chemicals. These films often incorporate antiblocking agents to ensure freshly made film layers do not adhere to each other and ensure smooth production of end products. The selection of a specific antiblocking agent for polyethylene blends used to manufacture films can dictate overall film quality and manufacturing efficiency. Grace’s SYLOBLOC® antiblocking agents are optimized to the highest degree possible to ensure quality and efficiency.

SYLOBLOC® Antiblocking Agents 

High Purity

SYLOBLOC® is a line of synthetic silica antiblocking additives with excellent optical properties and high effectiveness in plastic films at low use rates. They are among the most highly pure antiblocking agents available on the market, which creates an advantage over other types of film antiblocking agents. The data below compares SYLOBLOC® P05 to talc, natural silica, and another synthetic silica product, which are all used as antiblocking agents. As seen, SYLOBLOC® P05 is both qualitatively and quantitatively purer than the other options analyzed.
