Key Features

ZINC STEARATE GPSF HYDENSE® CODE 5895F 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.
