Polyglykol PE-K 270 S
Polyglykol PE-K 270 S is a high-performance lubricant, especially designed for the use in high pressure production processes of low density polyethylene (LDPE). It is a polyalkylene glycol (EO/PO random copolymer) with an excellent intrinsic lubricity and a high viscosity index, showing a favorable pressure-viscosity relationship.
