Application of Erucamide

Erucamide is a high-grade fatty acid amide, one of the important derivatives of erucic acid. Erucamide has high melting point, good thermal stability, lubricity, and antistatic properties. With erucamide's unique physical and chemical characteristics, erucamide has been widely applied in many fields. Here is a detailed introduction to the specific applications of erucamide.

1. Erucamide  in the plastic industry:

Erucamide is used as a lubricant, anti-sticking agent, and antistatic agent in various plastic films, such as LDPE, CPP, HDPE, EVA, etc. Using erucamide can prevent melt fracture of the film, provide opening properties, reduce the coefficient of friction, and meet the processing and usage requirements of different films;

2. Erucamide  in the injection molding industry:

Erucamide is an important auxiliary for PP blown film, multilayer co-extruded film, high-transparency agricultural film, transparent rigid PVC film or sheet, PS film or sheet, and ternary copolymer film; erucamide can also be used as an additive for filter paper (membrane), as well as a release agent and surface lubricant and gloss enhancer for engineering plastics, thermoplastic elastomers, and fluororubber.

3. Erucamide  in the ink industry:

Erucamide plays a role in lubrication, anti-adhesion, and anti-fouling in inks, erucamide can delay the sedimentation and caking of pigments and fillers, help re-dispersion, increase the wear resistance, scratch resistance, and surface smoothness of printed materials, improve the anti-adhesion of overprint varnish, and make the print clear and bright in color.

4. Erucamide  in the rubber industry:

Adding erucamide to rubber (SBE, SBP, SBR, PP) can improve the gloss, anti-fouling, and elongation of rubber products, enhance the vulcanization promotion and wear resistance, and prevent sun cracking.

5. Erucamide  in other industries:

Erucamide is a lubricant for LDPE calendered artificial leather, a lubricant for high-wear-resistant materials (gears, shaft seals, bushings, etc.) such as PA, and a lubricant and dispersant for ABS graphite fiber modified materials; erucamide can also be used as an effective anti-sticking hot-melt adhesive.

6. Erucamide  in emerging fields:

In the new energy field, erucamide is used as an additive for lithium-ion battery electrolytes; in the cosmetic field, erucamide is used as an emulsifier; in the environmental protection field, erucamide is used for the preparation of biodegradable materials.
