Zinc Stearate / Calcium Stearate



PURE & LIGHT ZINC STEARATE

UNIFLOW is a precipitated Zinc Stearate manufactured by a novel precipitation process developed by our R & D department having tremendous experience in precipitation and particle size / morphology control technology. The output is a unique combination of lightness and melt transparency / stability in the product and better dispersion in the base polymer. The product is technically far better than the currently available products, besides the assurance of consistent quality from an ISO-9001 certified manufacturing unit.
