Features & Benefits

Materials Features
Product Performance
  • Baerolub® PE Powder/2 is not very compatible with PVC, as it is a non-polar molecule.
  • It shows hydrophobic properties and provides good surface gloss.
  • Dosages over 0.2 PHR can bring haze to clear applications.
  • Baerolub® PE Powder/2 is used with a balance of other internal and external lubricants in the formulation.
Key Features
  • Baerolub® PE Powder/2 is a highly effective external lubricant for the processing of rigid PVC.
  • It is considered to be more effective than traditional paraffin wax, and is therefore used in lower dosages.
