Applications
Product Applications
  • Due to its physical properties and good thermal stability MAGNESIUM STEARATE SW/F POWDER is an excellent lubricant and release agent for many thermoplastics applications.
  • Consistent physical properties allow the MAGNESIUM STEARATE SW/F POWDER to be uniformly blended and dispersed with a large variety of materials.
  • The relatively fine particle size provides excellent lubrication and surface quality in ABS and other thermoplastic resin molding applications.
  • The hydrophobic nature of magnesium stearate combined with the relatively fine particle size and high surface area allow is to function as a hydrophobing agent.
