Licocare® RBW 560 powder TP Vita

Licocare RBW 560 powder TP Vita is a high-performing additive based on renewable, non-food competing feedstock that provides a unique combination of lubrication and nucleation in engineering plastics, particularly in polyester compounds formulated for use in the E&E-, packaging-, medical- or transportation industries. Given its favorable chemical structure, Licocare RBW 560 powder TP Vita shows excellent thermal stability and favorable migration characteristics in the finished product.

In addition to the excellent nucleation effect of the Licocare RBW 560 powder TP Vita, this product also has outstanding lubrication and mold release effects. Licocare RBW 560 powder TP Vita is effective at concentrations of 0.1 - 0.5% in polyester.
