ULTRA-FLOW ™
These internal lubricants lower the polymer-polymer and polymer-filler interactions, thus greatly lowering rubber
compound viscosities for increased mixing and extrusion efficiency. ULTRA-FLOW™ products help in stabilising
compound viscosity upon storage and give rise to quicker compound relaxation behind the extrusion die. They
significantly improve the down line processes by providing better control over the dimensional stability of the
semi-finished or finished articles.
