Exfola

Surface Modifier for Polyolefin-based Fabricated Products

Applications detail

Exfola is an additive that changes the surface of a molded product to silicone-specific characteristics (mold releasability, water and oil repellency, and abrasion resistance) by adding a small amount when molding polyolefin materials.

Characteristics

Overview

ExfolaTM is an additive for polyolefin, such as polyethylene and polypropylene, and combines the characteristics both of polyolefin and silicone. It enhances the surface of polyolefin-fabricated articles various physical/chemical properties, such as, releasing property, water-repellency, oil-repellency, anti-pollution property, sliding property, abrasion resistance, and surface smoothness.
ExfolaTM is widely used as a surface modifier of polyolefin-based articles, such as, films, sheets, containers, and packages. Two types, polyethylene-based compound and polypropylene-based compound, are available.
