- Key Features
Baerolub® FTA Veg Prill is produced from very high quality, kosher certified fatty acid for use as a lubricant for the extrusion of transparent PVC food film and other polymer applications requiring a low dusting, free-flowing kosher certified processing aid.
- Product Performance
- Baerolub® FTA Veg Prill is a very effective external lubricant and internal lubricant supplement for the processing of flexible and rigid PVC.
- High apparent density and relatively large average particle size helps minimize dust exposure and housekeeping problems in the workplace.
- The free-flowing, granular nature of the prilled form prevents problems with bridging and caking and facilitates accurate dosing in virtually any type of bulk handling or conveying and automated weighing and metering systems.
