Recommended Uses & Known Applications

SST-3 Tan provides outstanding slip and rub/abrasion resistance in inks for web printing, sheet-fed litho and metal decorating, as well as can, coil, industrial and UV coatings. It may be used with Shamrock's S394 N1 or S-395 N1 polyethylene waxes. SST-3 Tan is part of Shamrock’s premier line of SST Series PTFE powders. Each powder features a closely defined mean particle size with a narrow, uniform particle size distribution for enhanced manufacturing control and performance. SST powders are: insoluble, heat resistant, easy to incorporate and highly efficient. For best results, add during the end of the grind stage or under high shear.
