Products in Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul: Processing Aid

ULTRA-LUBE™ 200 is a processing additive for most rubber compounds. It shows outstanding performance as a dispersing aid for most fillers used in rubber compounding. In injection and transfer molding ULTRA-LUBET 200 leads to faster mold filling due to its internal lubrication. An improved mold release can also be observed. ULTRA-LUBE™ 200 also works very well as an internal release agent that prevents sticking of compounds to mill rolls, calendering bowls and internal mixer rotors. ULTRA-LUBE™ 200 does not adversely interfere with most curing systems. Due to its low dosage level there is little or no effect on physical properties of the finished goods.

ULTRA-PEP™ 90 is a multi functional processing additive. ULTRA-PEP™ 90 works as a mild mastication agent in the early stage of NR compounding and subsequently aids filler dispersion and down line processing, like extrusion and mold flow. Since the mastication effect is slower than with common peptizing agents, fewer break downs of polymer chains can be observed, resulting in better physical and dynamic properties. ULTRA-PEP™ 90 can be added in the masterbatch compound with other compounding ingredients and therefore a pre-mastication step is not needed. As such, additional cost saving could be achieved.

ULTRA-LUBE™ 480 is a highly effective processing additive for specialty polymers. Its unique structure is particular suitable to improve flow and release of ECO compounds resulting in lower reject rate due to poor hot tear of ECO vulcanisates. Besides, it helps in preventing mold fouling. ULTRA-LUBE™ 480 also works very well to improve extrusion characteristics of NBR/PVC blend compounds.

Natro-Cel PE-A is a low molecular weight polyethylene grease, silicon dioxide blend, used as an internal lubricant and processing aid that helps mold flow, extruding and release. It also prevents tack in green rubber.

ULTRA-LUBE™ 420 is a processing additive for applications in all elastomers. ULTRA-LUBE™ 420 provides very good lubricating effects and helps to improve flow and mold release. ULTRA-LUBE™ 420 shows excellent performance in highly filled EPDM compounds. No adverse effect on physicals is noted and its saturated structure makes it suitable for peroxide vulcanisation.

ULTRA-LUBE™ 790 is a processing additive designed as an internal lubricant for specialty polymers. Due to its low volatility, it can be used in heat resistant vulcanisates based on HNBR, ACM and FKM. ULTRA-LUBE™ 790 shows excellent lubricating properties, which leads to reduction of injection pressure in the molding process and prevents scorch. Its outstanding release effect also improves mold release and prevents sticking of compounds to rolls and rotors. ULTRA-LUBE™ 790 is very cost effective because it greatly reduces the reject rates of vulcanisates.

ULTRA-PEP™ 96 is a combined peptizing and processing additive for natural rubber. ULTRA-PEP™ 96 is easily dispersed in rubber due to its content of dispersing agent present. ULTRA-PEP™ 96 is extremely active and therefore can be used at low dosage levels. Its peptizing action starts at 90 °C but reaches an optimum at 140°C.

ULTRA-LUBE™ 330 is a general processing additive in most common polymers. In highly filled compounds ULTRA-LUBE™ 330 prevents the agglomeration of filler, which leads to better uniformity of physical properties of the finished goods. This is particularly beneficial for extrusion of rubber profiles. The addition of ULTRA-LUBE™ 330 leads to faster incorporation of filler. ULTRA-LUBE™ 330 shows a positive influence on metal release, thus preventing sticking of the compounds to open mill rolls or internal mixer rotors. It also improves mold release.
