This handbook, now in its second edition, is the only
comprehensive reference available on the subject of antiblocking,
release, and slip additives, which are of high industrial
importance. These additives are used to alter the properties and
performance of polymers, and improve the efficiency and cost of
processing methods. These characteristics make additives an
important topic across the spectrum of industry sectors that employ
plastics and polymers.
Topics covered include: Types and concentrations, Effect on
polymer and/or other additives, and Typical formulations.
Information on use of additives in various products is divided into
the following sections: Types and concentrations, Reasons for use,
Advantages and disadvantages of additive use, Effect on product
properties, and Examples of formulations. Processing methods are
discussed using the following breakdown: Types and concentrations,
Effect on process, Effect on product properties, Advantages and
disadvantages of additive use, Examples of formulations. A complete
analysis of literature and patents available from the first use of
these additives until now is included in the book.
Wypych considers all essential aspects of chemistry, physical
properties, influence on properties of final products,
formulations, methods of incorporation, analysis, and effects on
health and environment. The book comprises 18 chapters, each
addressing specific aspect of properties and applications of
antiblocking, release, and slip agents.
* The only available reference on antiblocking, slip, and
release additives
* A comprehensive information source, with numerous references
provided as a starting point for further investigation
* Evaluation of additives that can help speed up processes,
improve product quality, and reduce waste
