Surface property modifier

An important surface modifier is maleated polypropylene (MaPP) formed by the reaction 

A variety of organic/inorganic additives, in either solid or liquid form, are incorporated into plastic articles to achieve desired surface property modification. Depending upon the specific function they perform in modifying the surface property, they could be categorized as follows  

In the paints and coatings industry, surface modifiers are used to modify the appearance or to improve the performance characteristics of a cured film. Typical performance features include antiblocking, slip, abrasion resistance, matting, and scratch/mar resistance [1], 

Different types of solid materials most widely used at present include [2, 3]

Surface Property Modifiers with further division into a) solid lubricants/tribological additives that include molybdenite, graphite, PTFE and boron nitride and b) antiblocking fillers such as silica. Chapter 19. 

Superior wetting and rewetting agent for increasing absorbency and penetration. Emulsifying agent, dewatering aid, surface tension reducer and surface property modifier. Surfactant for emulsion polymerization.

In this chapter, we described the characteristics of binary compounds containing various types additives. These additives include various types of stabilizers, surface property modifiers, antistatic agents, nucleating agents, and curatives. Many of these are polar organic compounds that have limited solubility in hydrocarbon polymer matrices.
