Description

Menhaden Fish Oil, Polymerzied CAS NO 68213-57-0 is a specialized, high-molecular-weight derivative of menhaden fish oil, produced through a controlled polymerization process. This modification enhances its oxidative stability and film-forming properties, making it a valuable, sustainable alternative to certain petrochemical-based raw materials. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the coatings, ink, lubricant, and polymer industries seeking bio-based components with specific rheological and protective characteristics.

Application

• Coatings & Paints: Acts as a bio-based plasticizer and film-forming agent in alkyd resins, improving flexibility, gloss, and drying time in industrial and marine coatings.
• Printing Inks: Used as a modifying resin and viscosity regulator in specialty inks, contributing to improved adhesion and rub resistance.
• Lubricants & Greases: Serves as a tackifier and extreme pressure additive in biodegradable lubricating greases and metalworking fluids.
• Polymer Modification: Functions as a processing aid and compatibilizer in rubber compounding and as a modifier for other polymers to enhance specific properties.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Imparts tack and flexibility in certain adhesive formulations and caulking compounds.
• Corrosion Inhibitors: Used in formulations for temporary protective coatings and rust preventative compounds.

Quality Control

Our Menhaden Fish Oil, Polymerzied is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch is tested for key parameters including viscosity, acid value, color, and iodine value to ensure consistency and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing these specifications are provided with every shipment. We adhere to relevant industry standards and can support compliance documentation for your supply chain requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at temperatures between 15-25°C (59-77°F). This product is easily oxidized; it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen blanket) after opening to maximize shelf life and maintain quality. Keep away from heat sources and open flames.
