EBS Wax

EBS Wax (Ethylene Bis Stearamide) is a high-performance synthetic wax widely used as a lubricant, release agent, and processing aid in plastics, rubber, coatings, and inks. Thanks to its excellent thermal stability and balanced slip properties, EBS Wax improves processing efficiency and surface quality across a broad range of formulations. It is valued for its consistency, compatibility with multiple polymers, and effectiveness at low dosages.

Unique Properties

  • Excellent internal and external lubrication properties
  • High thermal stability, suitable for elevated processing temperatures
  • Improves surface smoothness and gloss
  • Reduces friction and melt viscosity during processing
  • Effective release and anti-blocking agent
  • Good dispersion and compatibility with many polymers
  • Low migration and minimal impact on mechanical properties
  • Efficient performance at low addition levels
