Libwax SS

Generic Family: Additive -- Antioxidant / Heat Stabilizer • Supplied by: Liberty Chemicals

Stearyl Stearamide

Applications

Libwax - SS is a secondary amide showing excellent thermal stability and very low volatility, used as a lubricant and internal mold release agent for engineering plastics.

When Libwax - SS is thoroughly mixed with the polymer it greatly improves processing behavior and end-performance by reducing friction and adhesion forces between polymer and processing equipment and polymer to polymer surfaces.

Due to continuous migration a thin film of Libwax - SS is formed on the surface of the finished product. This result in improved flow behavior and better mold release.

The excellent thermal stability (5% weight loss at 300°C) allows very high processing temperatures needed for engineering polymers like nylon. Also in rotomolding applications the thermal stability is advantageous.
