Polyplastol 19 is a mixture of selected fatty acids.
Polyplastol 19 is suitable for the processing of polychloroprene, ethylene propylene copolymer and butadiene-, nitrile-, natural- & styrene butadiene rubber by extrusion.
Polyplastol 19 is used to reduce compound viscosity and to achieve higher extrusion rate and better productivity.
Polyplastol 19 offers compact and smooth surface in the finished goods.
Polyplastol 19 provides improved calender & die-plate productivity.
Recommended dosage level of Polyplastol 19 is 2-3 phr.
The shelf life of the grade is 2 years.
Typical applications
Polyplastol 19 has been designed and formulated for extrusion of compounds based on NBR, SBR
and NR but it performs well with any other polymer.
Polyplastol 19 is an internal lubricant that provides with maximum polymer chain order before crosslinking and improves the compound's flow in the die-plate and in the injection chamber when injection or transfer moulding.
How to use Polyplastol 19
Polyplastol 19 can be used in internal mixers as well as in open mills; it can be added during polymer loading process to achieve better filler dispersion and excellent compound processability.
Recommended dosage is 2-3 phr.
Variations may be necessary depending on the polymers and on the fillers used.
Polyplastol 19 is used:
- to reduce compound viscosity
- to achieve higher extrusion rate and better productivity
- to avoid die-plate head fouling
- to obtain compact and smooth surface in the finished goods
- to improve calender and die-plate productivity.
