    Applications

    Application in plastics industry:

    • Is used e.g. in the manufacturing of polypropylene-caps to provide a slip/lubricant effect in addition to an anti-static effect.
    • in agriculture plastic films as anti fogging agent.
    • It is used as a process aid in production of expanded polyethylene to improve gas exchange.

    Product dosing:
    We strongly recommend testing of your own system under the actual conditions of processing and end-use prior to full scale testing. Exact loading must be determined by composition of the specific polymer system.
    Other applications:

    • Cosmetic uses, as a co-emulsifier of emulsions, to modify viscosity and inprove stability.
    • As an emulsifier in the production of foods, including ice cream, chewing gum, toffee,shortening, margarine, starch etc.
    • Anti-aging agent for starch.
    • Protective coating for hygroscopic powders.
