K-Ox™ W15L and W75L are rust preventive intermediates that are typically converted to metallic soaps or esters. The metallic soaps of K-Ox™ W15L and W75L offer excellent resistance to humidity and salt spray while the esters contribute good lubricity and water displacing/dispersing characteristics. K-Ox™ W15L and W75L may be used alone as a wetting agent or as a complete or partial replacement for natural fats (animals or vegetable) used in steam cylinder lubricants; and in the formulations of drawing, cutting, or rolling oils. K-Ox™
W15L or W75L can also be used as a corrosion inhibitor in grease at 2% concentrations and are best added to the grease during the cooling stage.
