Zincum TX Veg

Zincum TX Veg by Baerlocher is zinc stearate. Acts as a lubricant and release agent. It is produced from a high quality, vegetable based fatty acid. Low impurity levels ensure a high clarity. Insoluble in water and alcohols but clearly soluble in aromatic solvents. Due to its pastille form, it is absolutely dust free and shows unique handling and feeding characteristics. The free flowing nature of the product eliminates bridging or caking while facilitating use in any type of packaging, bulk handling or conveying system. Because of its purity and its good thermal stability, it is used as a lubricant and release agent for polyethylene and polystyrene.
