Plastistrength® L1000

Plastistrength® L1000 is a highly-efficient acrylic lubricant that offers excellent benefits to PVC compounders and processors. Plastistrength® L1000 acrylic lubricant provides excellent metal release characteristics because of its unique lubricating properties. Due to its high efficiency at low use levels, Plastistrength® L1000 acrylic lubricant has little effect on clarity, heat stability, chemical resistance, and physical properties. These characteristics combine to make Plastistrength® L1000 acrylic lubricant ideal for calendering, blow molding and extrusion applications. Plastistrength® L1000 acrylic lubricant is available in powder form, or as a latex emulsion.

Other Hazards
Processing may release vapors and/or fumes which cause eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation, Contains polymer(s). Effects due to processing releases: Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause: headache, drowsiness, nausea, weakness, (severity of effects depends on extent of exposure), Mechanical irritation effects from dust exposure are possible at ambient temperature. This product may release fume and/or vapor of variable composition depending on processing time and temperature. The hazard classification is based on results of particle size testing.
