This paper will introduce the following three aspects: the characteristics of PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch compared with PP film, what should be paid attention to in the selection of PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch, and how to choose the appropriate PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch.

packing slip and anti-blocking masterbatch

PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch is a kind of widely used plastic additive, which can significantly improve the processing properties and product quality of PE film. However, some key issues need to be paid attention to in the process of selecting PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch.

1. Characteristics of masterbatch compared PE film with PP film

PE film and PP film are two commonly used plastic materials, which are widely used in plastic packaging and plastic bag manufacturing. There are also some differences in the application of PE film opening and PP film opening.

1.1 Main characteristics of PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch

1.1.1 Low solubility point

The melting point of PE film is lower than that of PP film, so the melting point of PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch is also relatively low.

1.1.2 High transparency

The transparency of the PE film itself is higher, and the transparency changes little after adding the slip and anti-blocking masterbatch.

1.1.3 Excellent processing performance

PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch can significantly reduce the surface friction coefficient of PE film so that it is easier to form and process in the process of processing.

1.2 The main characteristics of  PP film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch

1.2.1 High melting point

The melting point of PP film is higher than that of PE film, so the melting point of PP film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch is relatively high.

1.2.2 Low transparency

The transparency of PP film itself is low, and the transparency of PP film will be affected after the addition of slip and anti-blocking masterbatch.

1.2.3 Excellent heat resistance

PP film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch can significantly improve the heat resistance of PP film, making it more suitable for high-temperature applications.

2. What should we pay attention to when choosing PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch

In the selection of PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch, the following aspects need to be considered:

2.1 Packaging Requirements

Different packaging requirements require different slip and anti-blocking masterbatch. For example, for the need for high transparency of the packaging, need to choose a transparent performance of good slip and anti-blocking masterbatch; For packaging requiring high heat resistance, you need to choose a high-temperature resistant opening.

2.2 Material durability

The choice of slip and anti-blocking masterbatch should also consider its durability. Some slip and anti-blocking masterbatch may lose their effect within a short period, or their quality may change during storage or transportation. Therefore, it is important to choose a high-quality slip and anti-blocking masterbatch that has been fully tested and validated.

2.3 Environmental Protection Requirements

Nowadays, consumers have higher and higher requirements for environmental protection, so it is very important to choose environmental protection slip and anti-blocking masterbatch. The environmentally friendly slip and anti-blocking masterbatch has no adverse effects on the environment and human health and meets the requirements of sustainable development.

2.4 Processing performance

The processing property of slip and anti-blocking masterbatch is also a factor to be considered. The slip and anti-blocking masterbatch should have good dispersion and can be evenly distributed in the process of processing. In addition, the stability of the slip and anti-blocking masterbatch is also very important to ensure the stability and quality of the product.

3. How to choose the appropriate PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch

Many factors need to be taken into account in selecting the suitable slip and anti-blocking masterbatch for PE films, including material characteristics, production process, and market demand. The following are some suggestions for selecting PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch:

3.1 Select slip and anti-blocking masterbatch according to packaging requirements

Select PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch according to the required packaging requirements, such as transparency, heat resistance, moisture resistance, etc. The properties of different slip and anti-blocking masterbatches vary greatly, so it is necessary to choose according to different needs.

3.2 Select the slip and anti-blocking masterbatch according to the production process

It is very important to choose the slip and anti-blocking masterbatch suitable for your production process. For example, in some manufacturing processes where high temperatures or pressures are used, it is necessary to select an opening slacker that can work stably under these conditions.

3.3 Select a proven high-quality slip and anti-blocking masterbatch

When choosing a PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch, look for products that are proven and tested to be of high quality. To ensure that the choice of slip and anti-blocking masterbatch can not only meet the requirements of the product but also has stable performance and long service life.

3.4 Select the masterbatch that meets environmental protection requirements

With the improvement of people’s awareness of environmental protection, the environmental protection type of PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch will become the future trend. In the selection of slip and anti-blocking masterbatch, it is necessary to give priority to the selection of products that meet the requirements of environmental protection and are harmless to human health and the environment.

3.5 Consider cost and market demand

Cost and market demand are also important factors in the selection of slip and anti-blocking masterbatch. In some cases, product costs and market demand may influence the decision to choose an open mouth smoother, and there is a trade-off to be made between these factors.

4. Precautions for the use of PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch

4.1 Pay attention to the ratio of slip and anti-blocking masterbatch

The ratio of slip and anti-blocking masterbatch should be accurate, not too much or too little, otherwise it will affect the quality of the product. Normally, 0.5-4% of the slip and anti-blocking masterbatch is added.

4.2 Pay attention to processing conditions

When processing PE film, it is necessary to pay attention to the control of processing temperature, speed, and other conditions to ensure that the slip and anti-blocking masterbatch can be evenly distributed on the PE film.

4.3 Pay attention to the storage conditions of the slip and anti-blocking masterbatch

The slip and anti-blocking masterbatch need to be stored in a dry, cool place, away from moisture and heat, to ensure its performance and quality.

5. Conclusion

The development of the PE film packaging industry needs to select suitable slip and anti-blocking masterbatch for PE film. PE film slip and anti-blocking masterbatch have a good opening effect, high transparency, and stable performance, which can meet the requirements of consumers for packaging quality.
