ESTILUBE
The ESTILUBE range consists of mono and polyol esters for use in metal working fluids and other industrial lubricants. These specialty products are applied as lubricity additives and film-forming components in the formulation.
The ESTILUBE L-series covers a range of mono esters with low odour and a low content of residual alcohol. The L-series esters are based on ‘narrow cut’ fatty acids. This means that a superior product quality is obtained with no light boilers or heavy residues.
The ESTILUBE P-series are based on pentaerythritol and selected mono and di-carboxylic acids and are available in varying viscosity ranges. Again, ‘narrow cut’ fatty acids are selected to obtain a superior product quality.
Commercial applications are found in water-miscible cutting fluids, neat oils, deep-drawing lubricants, grinding fluids, release agents, additive packages, de-watering fluids, rust removers, aerosols and many other areas.
