Application & Properties:
FINAWAX Erucamide is an excellent release agent for all polyolefins used in rotational and injection moulding, such as, pp syringes, furniture compounds, automobile compounds and other polyolefin compounds.
Improves mould release, thereby reducing / eliminating the use of mould release spray
Allows the used of lower clamp and pin pressure
Lower rejection rates caused by deformation and pin marks
Confers a degree of lubricity, possibly reducing screw wear
Improves the final 'feel' of the moulded article and the scratch resistance
In vinyl platisol to create slip effect in sealing gasket compounds, which are used for container caps of the crown cork and screw type caps.
In rubber industry, used as a mould release and slip agent in the manufacture of rubber products
In printing inks for paper & polyolefins, it improves slip and antiblocking properties, enhances spreading properties, promotes adhesion to the printed surface & protects ink from scratching and rub-off
In PVC films/profiles, imparts slip properties & smooth/dry feel/ texture
FINAWAX Erucamide is recommended in the PVC cable applications to provide slip and water barrier properties. It is best known for its controlled surface migration property. Surface migrtion helps in forming a very thin additive layer on the surface resulting into offering slip properties and preventing the ingrees of water for PVC wire.
