High purity, non-wettable, calcium stearate granule. STRUKTOL® Calcium Stearate GR is an effective processing aid and release agent. The low chloride content of STRUKTOL® Calcium Stearate GR allows for complete product dispersion in elastomers. STRUKTOL® Calcium Stearate GR reduces extruder pressure build-up of rigid PVC compounds when used as a processing aid during the manufacture of pipe, siding and injection molded fittings. The low chloride content of STRUKTOL® Calcium Stearate GR meets the quality and processing demands of polyolefin, polystyrene and polyester manufacture. Some of the benefits of using STRUKTOL® Calcium Stearate GR are: - LOW DUST Controlled granule size during manufacture virtually eliminates work area dust problems. - EASY HANDLING Eliminates bridging or caking while facilitating use in any type of packaging, bulk handling or conveying system. - LOW IMPURITY Reduces extruder pressure build-up and minimizes fiber breakage during extrusion and spinning. - COLOR STABILITY High-purity and a unique manufacturing process give this product extreme heat resistance to prevent discoloration and haze formation.
