Silicone Slip & Scratch-Resist Additive for Ink

CAS Number: 67254-79-9

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and silicone-polyether copolymer additives designed to improve the slip, anti-scratch, and blocking resistance of printing inks while minimizing adverse effects on gloss and re-coatability. These surface-active silicone additives orient at the ink-air interface during drying or UV cure, creating a low-energy surface layer that resists fingerprints, scratches, and abrasion in flexible packaging and label inks.

Technical Specifications

appearanceClear to hazy liquid or 50% aqueous emulsion
active content (%)50–100
viscosity (mPa·s)50–5000 (25 °C, grade dependent)
density (g/mL, 25 °C)0.96–1.05
surface tension (mN/m)20–24 (1% in ethanol)

Applications

  • Slip and anti-scratch in flexo and gravure inks
  • Blocking resistance in waterborne and solvent inks
  • UV ink surface slip and mar resistance
  • Label and pressure-sensitive ink protective additive
  • Overprint varnish slip and gloss modifier

Key Features

  • Superior surface slip and anti-scratch without reducing gloss
  • Effective in both solvent-based and waterborne ink systems
  • Minimal inter-coat adhesion impairment for multi-layer print structures
  • Low addition level (0.1–1%) for broad formulation compatibility
