Antiblock EcoBloc P-5 for Agricultural Films

It exhibits strong infrared reflection properties in the 1400-700 cm-1 wavelength region to reduce heat loss by as much as 74% compared to unfilled systems. This retained infrared energy increases night temperatures for optimal growth, extends the growing season and reduces space-heating requirements. Due to its low surface area, low porosity and a non-reactive chemistry, it will not interfere with HALS type stabilizers nor absorb other process additives. Precise partide size control ensures that it will not adversely impact tensile strength or other film mechanical properties. Chemical purity, including low iron and transition metal content, minimizes catalyzed photodegredation to extend field service lifetimes.

It is defined regulatory- wise as GRAS ( Generally Recognized As Safe ). So no OR is needed as the item is in fact exempted from REACH. (Relevant in Europe). We also work on a FDA statement.

The process of the Feldspar is done by mechanical procedures only. No coating or additives.

It is a high quality Silica aluminate crystalline powder

Its refractive index that essentially matches the host plastic.

It will maximize transmittance of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) to accelerate plant growth. Total light transmittance of Ecobloc P5 containing films remains above 90%, even when loading levels are increased beyond the traditional 10% threshold. Engineered for incorporation into single resin, copolymer or blended LDPE, LLDPE or EVA horticultural films, fruit, vegetable and ornamental plant production will benefit from it.
