Palmowax is a synthetic, N, N’-Ethylene-Bis-Stearmide. This product has excellent colour stability & has low viscosity in molten form under high temperature. Palmowax is compatible with most waxes and plasticizers. The polarity of its two central amide group and the non-polarity of the two fatty chains make this product an excellent surface-active agent which in incompatible with virtually all solvents and most polymer systems. When incorporated into polymers Palmowax will “bloom” to the surface, coating it with a monomolecular layer. Its incompatibility is the basis for several other properties and many of the product’s commercial applications.

As Lubricant: Fatty chain imparts excellent slip properties to surfaces upon which it collects. Because of this, Palmowax is a good blending agent. Corrosion Resistance: A coating of Palmowax will improve surface’s resistance to salt, heat, moisture and most solvents.

Antistatic: Palmowax will lower static charge generation in plastic film by reducing friction at the surface.

Electrical Properties: Palmowax can be used in many electrical applications without detracting from the electrical properties of the resins into which it is incorporated.
