<ul style="padding-left: 40px;"><li>It offers torque release, thermal- and oxidative stability.</li>
<li>It allows the use of less inorganic anti-blocking additives such as talc, silica and therefore maintains film clarity.</li>
<li>Optislip™ BR (Bead) is compatible with polyolefins and biopolymers.</li>
<li>It is EU 10/2011, FDA (175.105) and Swiss Ordinance A approved.</li>
