It is commonly used as a slip additive in polyethylene (PE) film applications, improving processing characteristics and reducing friction. It also provides excellent flow properties, scratch resistance, and adhesion. Armoslip® CP can be used as a lubricant, defoamer, and dye solubilizer, and is compatible with ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) and polypropylene (PP) resins. This product is part of the fatty acid amides chemical family and is available in both bead and powder forms.

BYK-306 is a silicone-containing surface additive for ambient-curing plastic systems and solvent-borne coating systems. It provides a strong reduction of surface tension, excellent substrate wetting, prevents cratering, and increases surface slip.

BYK-325 N is a silicone-containing surface additive for solvent-borne coatings, designed to improve leveling with a slight reduction in surface tension and a minor increase in surface slip. It functions as a leveling agent and is in liquid form. The product belongs to the polydimethylsiloxanes chemical family.

BYK-P 104 is a solution of a low molecular weight unsaturated polycarboxylic acid polymer. It serves as a dispersant and wetting agent, enhancing sagging resistance and flooding resistance. It is suitable for various applications, including solventborne coatings, primers, wood coatings, coil coatings, and coatings requiring anti-settling and floating resistance.

BYK-UV 3500 is a crosslinking, silicone-containing surface additive for radiation-curable printing inks, coatings, and adhesives. It significantly reduces surface tension, provides excellent substrate wetting and tape release, increases surface slip, and improves leveling.

BYK-307 is a silicone-containing surface additive for solvent-free and solvent-borne coating systems, printing inks, and adhesives. It strongly reduces surface tension, ensures excellent substrate wetting, prevents cratering, and increases surface slip. It is a solvent-free alternative to BYK-306.

Lactimon is a specialized solution consisting of a partial amide and alkylammonium salt of a lower molecular weight unsaturated polycarboxylic acid polymer, combined with a polysiloxane copolymer. This formulation functions as a wetting agent and dispersant, providing enhanced performance in various coating applications. It is particularly beneficial in wood coating, coil coating, and solventborne coatings. Lactimon improves slip, leveling, and offers excellent dispersion characteristics. It is also hygroscopic, making it suitable for solventless and high solids coatings, contributing to better surface compatibility and application properties. Available in pails and drums.

BYK-342 is a silicone-containing surface additive for solvent-borne, solvent-free, and aqueous coating systems. It provides a strong reduction in surface tension, enhances substrate wetting, prevents cratering, and increases surface slip. This product is ideal for waterborne, solventless, and high solids coatings and belongs to the silicone chemical family.

BYK-322 is a silicone-containing surface additive for solvent-borne coating systems, offering a slight reduction in surface tension and an increase in surface slip. Thermostable up to 250°C, it provides good leveling and defoaming properties. This additive functions as a leveling agent and belongs to the silicone chemical family.

BYK-326 is a silicone-containing surface additive for solvent-borne, aqueous, and 100% coatings. It offers a slight reduction in surface tension, a slight increase in surface slip, and is particularly suitable for achieving good leveling.
