South Carolina Polymer 3525

South Carolina Polymer 3525 is a high density oxidized polyethylene used in coating industries, overprint varnish, polishes, and inks to improve surface properties including scuff and mar resistance. This can also provide heat resistance in hot melt adhesives. In PVC processing, SCPG3525 can be used as a metal release agent and acts as fusion control for formulations and is good for aqueous emulsions & dispersions.

Functions: Mold Release Agent, Processing Aid, Release Agent

Compatible Polymers & Resins: Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)

Applications
  • Best product for emulsion applications. Provides small emulsion particle size of <0.1 microns with good filterability and transmittance.
  • In textile applications SCPG 3525 will provide superior high speed fabric cutting and sewing characteristics compared with emulsions made using lower density, lower melt polyethylene.
  • Emulsions made using SCPG 3525 provide excellent metal to fiber lubricity when compared to emulsions made using lower molecular weight polyethylene.
  • SCPG 3525 may also be used as a release agent in MIM (metal injection molding) applications.
