Ionic |
|
An
extremely effective lubricant and wetting agent that
can be used in a wide variety of polymer systems.
Also provides release characteristics. |
|
Similar
to TR 016
except the calcium ion is replaced by a zinc ion.
Works well in HIPS, PS and color concentrates. |
|
An
efficient lubricant system that works extremely well
in filled and unfilled nylon for processability improvement
and increased output rates. |
|
A
blend of anionic and nonionic surfactants for areas
where EBS is being used. An effective dispersant and
wetting agent for pigments and fillers in a wide variety
of polymer systems. TR
255 is the FDA version. |
Non-Ionic |
|
A
nonionic, ester-based wetting agent for polar fillers
and pigments used for improved dispersion and metal
release. Contains no metal ions. TR
045 is the FDA version. |
|
Provides
flow and metal release with little or no effect
on physical properties in most polymer systems.
The best choice for polar or engineering resins.
Very good heat stability. |
|
Designed
to provide improved processing characteristics
of filled and unfilled polyamides. Typical
improvements at the compounding stage are reduced
die build-up (“die bearding”) and die
drool. For injection molding applications,
processors can expect to see better flow and mold
filling vs. typical lubricants such as metal stearates
or amide waxes. |
Resinous |
|
A
compatibilizer and blending aid that reduces splay
in colored and/or filled olefins. Extremely compatible
with olefins and can be used to increase extrusion
output rates. |
Amides |
|
Primary
oleamide used as a slip agent in polyolefins. Its
uniform bloom makes it a valuable flow and release
agent in thermoplastics and thermoset elastomers. |
|
Erucic
acid amide used as a higher temperature slip agent.
Its slower migration rate is beneficial for printing
films. |
|
Saturated
primary amide which blooms in an invisible monolayer
for surface appearance. Improved surface in rotomolded
compounds. |
|
Ethylene
bisstearamide wax for a wide range of polymers
used for improved dispersion of pigments and fillers
and viscosity modification. TR EBS VG is manufactured
from high quality vegetable acid with low iodine
value. |
Other |
|
DSTDP
and DLTDP thioester secondary antioxidants for
use in conjunction with phenolic primary antioxidants
in a wide range of polymers. |
|
Simple
and complex fatty acid esters for use in a wide range
of PVC applications. Act as viscosity modifiers, metal
release agents and processing improvers. |
Metal
Stearates |
|
A
high purity micro-bead or pellet form of zinc stearate.
Used extensively in resin production, compounding
and color concentrate production. Other grades include
Vegetable Grade and Clear Melt. |
|
Calcium
and Magnesium Stearates |
