SST®-5S is a 3 µm polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) micropowder with a tightly controlled particle size distribution. SST®-5S provides optimum rub and slip performance for thin-film applications. SST® products are Shamrock’s PTFE micro powders that are defined by particle size and distribution, molecular weight, crystallinity, surface area, oil adsorption, powder flow, and color. Made primarily from highly controlled recycled PTFE feedstocks, SST® products are used for their ability to provide slip, non-stick, water repellency, texture, release, rub, and abrasion resistance to surfaces.

Functions: Anti-Abrasion Agent, Slip Agent

End Uses: Coil Coating, Offset Ink, Powder Coating, Radiation Curable Coating, Solventborne Coating, Solventborne Ink, Waterborne Coating, Waterborne Ink
