Description

Isotridecyl stearate are used in a wide range of environmental lubricants. Isotridecyl stearate is hydrolytic and thermal stable saturated mono-ester with high flash point. Isotridecyl stearate provides good lubricity. It is readily emusifiable and it has Low volatility (Noack). Isotridecyl stearate added to our range of functional esters to offer lubricity properties to neat and emulsifiable metalworking fluids.

It is a saturated long chain fatty acid ester that provides excellent metal adhesion and a low friction tribofilm. It may be used as a lubricity additive or friction modifier for a broad range of metalworking applications. With a high flash point, low odour, excellent lubricity and excellent hydrolytic stability it is used in both oil-based and water-based metalworking fluid applications.

For greases it contributes improved cold flow properties, lower volatility, good thermal stability, low noise level, good air release and water separation. Isotridecyl stearate is typically used as a lubricity improver in steel, copper and aluminium rolling applications
