Description

N,N'-(1,2-Ethanediyl)Bis(Decanamide) is a high-purity diamide compound, also known as ethylene bis(stearamide) or EBS, valued for its excellent lubricating and anti-blocking properties. This versatile chemical intermediate is crucial for enhancing the processing and performance characteristics of various polymer and resin systems. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the plastics, coatings, and specialty chemical industries seeking to improve product quality and production efficiency.

Application

• Acts as a highly effective internal and external lubricant in PVC, polyolefins, and engineering plastics to reduce friction during processing.
• Functions as an anti-blocking and anti-sticking agent in polymer films and sheets.
• Serves as a mold release agent in the production of rubber and plastic components.
• Used as a dispersing agent for pigments and fillers in masterbatches and color concentrates.
• Imparts water repellency and surface modification in coatings and paper treatments.
• Acts as a viscosity modifier and processing aid in hot-melt adhesives and sealants.
• Employed as a slip agent to improve surface feel and reduce coefficient of friction in finished plastic products.
• Used in the formulation of crayons, pencils, and polishes for its lubricating and texturizing effects.
