FLYADD grades and lines
Product description
FLYADD masterbatches carry film and moulding additives at controlled concentration, so processors can add exactly the function they need at the machine. Grades are halogen- and antimony-free by default.

Typical properties
| Property | Typical value | Method |
|---|---|---|
| Carrier | LDPE, LLDPE or PP, matched to the polymer | — |

| Granule size | 2–3 mm | Sieve |
Use
- Slip and antistatic
- Effect develops as the additive migrates to the surface, typically within 24–48 hours
- Agricultural film
- Use acid-resistant AD-UV grades where films meet sulfur or chlorine agrochemicals
- Combinations
- Check interactions (for example antistatic with slip) in a trial before production
Supply and safety
