Coad® 10C Calcium Stearate

It is a high grade calcium stearate. It acts as a dispersing aid during the blending cycle and as a lubricant and processing aid during extrusion. Also acts as a mold release agent for injection molding and matched metal die molding under certain conditions. It also acts as an antisticking agent for rubber slab where a dry powder is preferred. It has low chloride content, low specific surface, exhibits excellent heat stability properties for high temperature processing and provides mold release properties critical for thermoplastics and thermoset molding. It also improves stability by neutralizing acidic decomposition products in the polymerization of certain polyolefins. It appears as free flowing white powder with slight fatty odor. It is practically insoluble in water. It is useful for applications with zinc discharge limitations. It is developed for the PVC processing industry. It meets the requirements of PPI-TR3 and NSF Standard 14 for potable water.
