STRUKTOL® TR 131
- Unsaturated primary amide derived from erucic acid
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR APPLICATION
- STRUKTOL® TR 131 is mainly used as a slip agent in polyolefin films, reducing the coefficient of friction. It is the agent of choice at higher extrusion temperatures because of its high heat stability and slower rate of migration to the surface compared with oleamides. The slower rate of migration is also an advantage when films are printed, sealed or laminated shortly after extrusion. Its low odor makes it extremely suitable for food contact applications. STRUKTOL® TR 131 is also used as a release agent in various polymer systems, and as a dispersant in color concentrates and printing inks. In PVC plastisols for screw closures, it reduces the torque and facilitates release. STRUKTOL® TR 131 is also used as a process aid or lubricant in thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), thermoplastic resins and thermoset rubber systems. The properties it imparts to the surface may assist in subsequent operations such as parts assembly.
