Ethylene bis stearamide (EBS) is derived from stearic acid and ethylenediamine. It is a waxy white solid and is also found as powder or beads.
Applications
Plastics
EBS is a synthetic wax used as a dispersing agent or internal/external lubricant for benefits in plastic applications to facilitate and stabilize the dispersion of solid compounding materials to enhance processability, to decrease friction and abrasion of the polymer surface, and to contribute color stability and polymer degradation.
Process industries
It is used as in process industries as release agents, antistatic agents, and antifoaming agents.
