TARWAX E
    Application in Plastic Industry
    Application in Other Industry
   

DESCRIPTION:
Tarwax E is a synthetic was with a common chemical name, N, N’-Ethylene-Bis-Stearmide. This product has excellent colour and colour stability and special property showing the low viscosity in molten form under high temperature.

PROPERTIES:
Stability:
Tarwax E is a stable high melting compound. Its melting point is significantly higher than that of a comparable monomer.

Compatibility: Tarwax E is compatible with most waxes and plasticizers. The polarity of its two central amide group and the non-polarity of the two fatty chains make this product an excellent surface-active agent which in incompatible with virtually all solvents and most polymer systems. When incorporated into polymers Tarwax E will “bloom” to the surface, coating it with a monomolecular layer. Its incompatibility is the basis for several other properties and many of the products commercial applications.

Lubricity: This products fatty chain imparts excellent slip properties to surfaces upon which it collects. Because of this, Tarwax E is a good blending agent. Corrosion Resistance: A coating of Tarwax E will improve surface’s resistance to salt, heat, moisture and most solvents.

Antistatic Properties: Tarwax E will lower static charge generation in plastic film by reducing friction at the surface. Electrical Properties: Tarwax E can be used in many electrical applications without detracting from the electrical properties of the resins into which it is incorporated.
