Features & Benefits
- Labeling Claims
- Materials Features
- Product Performance
- Low impurity levels ensure high clarity and heat stability to prevent haze and discoloration in unpigmented polystyrene, polyolefins and other clear thermoplastics.
- Provides acid catalyst neutralization for polyolefins and excellent lubrication and mold release properties in polystyrene and other thermoplastic applications.
- High apparent density and relatively large average particle size helps minimize dust exposure and housekeeping problems in the work environment.
- The free-flowing nature prevents problems with bridging and caking while facilitating use in virtually any type of bulk handling or conveying and automated weighing and metering systems.
- Key Features
- Zinc Stearate RSN 131 HS GRANULAR CODE 8512 is produced from a high quality tallow derived fatty acid for polymer applications requiring a free flowing and low dusting processing aid with excellent handling and feeding characteristics.
- The outstanding clarity and heat stability set the industry standard for impact and crystal grade polystyrene, polyolefins, and other clear polymers.
