MAGNESIUM STEARATE AV VEG is produced from a high-quality, vegetable-derived fatty acid for polymer and all applications requiring a relatively low dusting grade of magnesium stearate with good handling and feeding characteristics.
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Applications
- Product Applications
- Due to its physical properties and good thermal stability MAGNESIUM STEARATE AV VEG is an excellent lubricant and release agent for many thermoplastics applications.
- The granular form MAGNESIUM STEARATE AV VEG is low dusting and shows unique handling and feeding characteristics.
- The free flowing nature of MAGNESIUM STEARATE AV VEG eliminates bridging or caking while facilitating use in any type of packaging, bulk handling or conveying system.
