USAGE
AB PE 20 S is used in both cast film and blown film processes, for LDPE and LLDPE.
AB PE 20 S is used to give surface friction to PE films while also giving excellent optical properties.
Synthetic silica gives a better transparency than natural silica and the additive chosen in AB PE 20 S
gives excellent optical properties.
RECOMMENDED ADDITION RATES
Antiblock agents are used in polyethylene film from 0.2 to 0.5 %. Therefore, we recommend
concentrations of AB PE 20 S between 1.0 and 2.5 %.
FOOD CONTACT STATUS
AB PE 20 S is suitable for food contact applications.
