Product Features

Baerolub LAS Powder is a high quality amide wax lubricant and processing aid for a variety of applications requiring a fine particle size product with good blending and dispersion characteristics.

Performance Benefits
  • The fine particle size of Baerolub L-AS Powder allows it to blend quickly and uniformly with a variety of additives, fillers and other powdered materials.
  • Baerolub L-AS Powder functions as an effective lubricant, mold release agent, processing aid, slip additive and pigment dispersant aid in a variety of polymers, including PVC, ABS, polyolefins, nylon, and thermoplastic polyesters.
  • Due to its good lubricating properties and relatively high, sharp, melting range, Baerolub L-AS-SP can be used as a lubricant for metal forming and as a dry lubricant for wire drawing.
  • Produced by a specially engineered milling process to yield a consistent particle size range and physical properties.
