Description

Fatty Acids, Tallow, Guerbet Reaction Products, Calcium Salts are specialized metallic soaps derived from the Guerbet reaction of tallow fatty acids. This product is valued for its unique hydrophobic and thickening properties, offering enhanced thermal stability and water repellency compared to standard calcium soaps. It serves as a key functional additive in industries requiring high-performance lubricants, polymer stabilizers, and water-resistant coatings.

Application

• Lubricant & Grease Additive: Acts as a thickener and extreme pressure (EP) agent in complex calcium sulfonate greases and other lubricating formulations.
• Polymer Industry: Functions as a heat stabilizer and acid scavenger in PVC and other halogenated polymer processing.
• Waterproofing Agent: Imparts water repellency in construction materials, coatings, and textile treatments.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Used as an opacifier and viscosity modifier in creams, lotions, and stick formulations.
• Paints & Inks: Serves as a flatting agent and rheology modifier to control flow and gloss.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Provides thixotropic properties and improves the stability of various adhesive systems.
