- Key Features
Zinc Stearate GP SF 5895 is produced from a high quality tallow derived fatty acid for applications where a very fine powdered processing aid is required, such as rubber dusting, in coatings, pigment dispersion or mold release for thermoplastic and thermoset resins.
- Product Performance
The very fine particle size provides excellent lubrication and mold release properties in expandable polystirene and other resin molding applications and excellent and surface quality in thermosets. Overbased to provide very effective acid catalyst neutralization in polyolefins. Consistent physical properties provide good blending and dispersion properties with a large variety of materials. Relatively high surface area and very fine particle size provides exceptional coating power and excellent pigment dispersion properties.
