    Principles of Silica Antiblocking Agents


    Our manufacturing process can be tailored to provide a broad Pore Volume
    array of product attributes. Blocking is the adhesion or bonding
    of two surfaces of film that occurs after production and/or
    during prolonged storage. Layers of polymer film tend to stick
    together, which is undesirable for stacked packaging and film
    processing & converting. Fast and damage-free unrolling of film
    is important. This “blocking” phenomenon is especially severe
    with polypropylene, polyethylene, and polyester films.

    Higher Pore Volume Lower Pore Volume


    SYLOBLOC® silica:
    • Imparts a micro-rough surface to the film, resulting in less Differing manufacturing processes result in varying degrees of
    film-to-film layer contact internal porosity. The higher the porosity, the more efficient the
    • Reduce blocking between the individual layers of film antiblocking grade will be.

    products for different film thicknesses and polymer types

    Various Ways of Delivering Additives


    SYLOBLOC® silica antiblocking agents
    can be delivered into a polymer melt or
    masterbatch in a number of forms: as a
    standard plain silica or in combination
    with other organic additives. The
    combination grades can be provided as
    physical blends or integrated blends.
    Separate Components Physical Mix Integrated
    In addition to efficiencies gained by
    combining several additives into one
    package, our combination grades provide
    advantages in handling through reduced
    dusting and improved flow characteristics.
