Ethylene Bis Stearmide is an excellent plastics processing auxiliary which is suitable for almost all thermosetting and thermoplastic plastics. EBS has good lubrication, anti-adhesive, anti-static properties which can help improve the dispersion of plastics and fillers. It is widely used as a lubricant, demoulding, slippery opening and plastic dispersing agent. It can improve the melting flowability, raise working efficiency and retrieve the insufficiency of the fineness in moulds.
Ethylene Bis Stearmide can be used as an anti-adhesive agent for various polmer films or sheets. An addition of 0.5-1% will not only prevent the occurrence of air bubbles (fish eye) but also make the plastic bags slippery so as to be opened easily.
Ethylene Bis Stearmide can be used as a lubricant with good inner or outer lubricant action. It has a good coordination when used with other lubricants as high grade alcohols, aliphatic acid esters, calcium stearates and paraffin. In the processing of ABS, AS, hard PVC, polyformaldehyde, polycarbonate, polyurethane and phenolformaldehyde resins, it is used as a lubricant demoulding agent with a quantity of 0.5-1.5%.
Ethylene Bis Stearmide can remarkably enhance the heat-resistant and weather-resistant properties while coordinating with a chief stabilizer in the formulae of inorganic fillers for PVC and polyolefins. As EBS has strong cohesion with pigments or other fillers, it can improve the dispersion and coupling property of fillers in the polymers to enhance the commercial value of the products.
Ethylene Bis Stearmide can be used as a nucleation transparency agent to reduce the nucleating time in compounds such as polyolefins, polyformaldehyde and polyamide. It can also promote the structure of resin and transparency of the products.
Ethylene Bis Stearmide can also be used as a processing auxiliary of rubber. Besides the lubricant demoulding property and modifying performance of filler surface, it can raise the surface fineness of rubber pipes and rubber plates to act as a rubber surface polishing agent. It improves the kneading, processing and vulcanization performance of rubber grains in the processing of flouro-rubber.
EBS can be added in coating production to increase the uniform dispersion of pigment and filler, improve the surface leveling property of baking paint, prevent the stripping off of paint film and improve water-proof and acid-resistant and alkali-resistant properties. In nitrocellulose lacquers, it can bring about the flatting action.
In the synthetic fiber industry, EBS can improve the heat-resistant and weather-resistant property of polyester and polyamide and bring about certain antistatic effects. It can be used in the spinning of antistatic nylon fiber as an additive and also to reduce the breaking of yarn.
