Multilingual document Pationic® Glycerol Esters Polymer additive solutions Food grade Pationic® glycerol esters function as: Mold release agents Antifog agents Antistats The Pationic® line offers polymer manufacturers and compounders mold release and antistatic agents, as well as lubricants, acid/catalyst neutralizers, dispersants, processing aids, and antifog agents. These are used in plastic-based food packaging and containers, as well as, plastic foam for packaging furniture and other durable goods. Lubricants What are glycerol esters? Glycerol esters are chemical combinations of glycerine and fatty acid. Nature provides us with an abundant supply in the form of fats and oils. Chemically, these natural products are glycerol triesters. Examples include: soybean oil, tallow, lard, and sunflower oil. Most industrial applications for glycerol esters require mono or mono/diesters for optimum performance. These products are loosely classified as GMS (glycerol monostearate), a solid at room temperature, and GMO (glycerol monooleate), a semi-solid. Corbion Caravan manufactures mono and mono/ diesters for the polymer industry. The chemistry behind the product Animal fats and vegetable oils are used as starting raw materials for the manufacture of GMO and GMS. If desired, these triesters are chemically hardened by hydrogenation to make them solid at room temperature. Hard or soft, the triester then undergoes glycerolysis, the primary chemical reaction for making mono and diesters. The final product of this reaction, after excess glycerine is removed, is the mono/diester, with a small amount of triester. It can be further refined, by distillation, to a 95% monoester product. Corbion.com Pationic® Glycerol Esters Polymer additive solutions Antistats, Antifogs, Mold Release and Lubricants Our product line is diverse. As the mono content varies, as the double bonds increase or decrease, performance properties are altered. The chemistry affects solubility, affinity for water, migration in polymers, lubrication properties, volatility, shelf-life, crystallinity, and surfactant activity. Consequently, Corbion offers a wide range of glycerol ester solutions to antistat, antifog, lubrication, dispersion, release, and polymer processing problems. In addition to our standard products, custom solutions can be developed and produced to meet a customer’s specific requirements.
