Oleamide Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Oleic Acid Amide
- Cis-9-Octadecenamide
Oleamide supplier enquiries in Malaysia commonly come from film converters, polymer compounders and formulators seeking a fatty-amide slip or release additive. Oleamide is the amide of oleic acid and is used when surface lubrication, anti-block behaviour or rub resistance is needed in a finished formulation.
Commercial material may be supplied as powder, beads, granules or a waxy solid depending on the grade and feeding method. Slip development, migration rate, moisture, colour and amide content can differ between grades, so the processing temperature, polymer substrate and target coefficient of friction should be stated rather than choosing only by product name.
Typical applications include polyethylene and polypropylene films, sheets, masterbatch, moulding compounds, printing inks, coatings, adhesives and selected rubber processing systems. Oleamide is distinct from erucamide and ethylene bis-oleamide, which have different chain structures and performance profiles.
Send the required grade or form, polymer or formulation, specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Oleamide grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Slip additive grade oleamide | white powder, beads or granules | — | Fast-migrating slip additive for polyethylene and polypropylene films, sheets and moulded articles where surface friction must be reduced after conversion. | Confirm the required dry pack format with the quotation. |
| Anti-block and release grade | white powder or granules | — | Anti-block, release and processing aid for polyolefin films, laminates and selected moulding compounds that need controlled surface lubrication. | Confirm the required dry pack format with the quotation. |
| Technical grade for inks and coatings | white to pale yellow waxy solid | — | Slip, rub-resistance and surface-modification additive for printing inks, coatings, adhesives and other technical formulations. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Common questions about oleamide
What is oleamide used for?
Oleamide is used mainly as a slip and anti-block additive in polyolefin films and as a surface-modification additive in inks, coatings, adhesives and technical polymer formulations.
How does oleamide differ from erucamide?
Both are fatty-amide slip additives, but they are different chemicals. Oleamide generally develops slip faster, while erucamide is selected when a slower, more persistent migration profile is wanted. State the exact amide in the enquiry.
Which oleamide form should I request?
Powder, bead and granule forms suit different feeding and dispersion systems. Include the film or compounding process, dosing method and required friction behaviour so the quoted form matches the equipment.
What specifications matter when buying oleamide?
Typical purchasing controls include appearance, amide content, moisture, colour, acid value and the slip or migration profile. Send any coefficient-of-friction target or film specification with the enquiry.
What information is needed for an oleamide quotation?
Provide the application, polymer substrate, grade or form, target specification, quantity, preferred packing and delivery location. Availability and documentation are confirmed with the quotation.
