Lubricant prevents breakdown during high-speed aluminum rolling An important new lubricant additive for aluminum rolling is Nopco® 9390. It is "prior sanctioned" by the FDA for use in producing aluminum sheet and foil for food wrapping. In preventing breakdown of the sheet as it is rolled out at high speed, it is an aid in increasing rolling speeds by some 400 ft. per minute.
Better pigment dispersing in latex paints A highly effective dispersant for latex paints is Lomar® PW. Two to 5 lb. per 100 gal. of paint is the usual ratio. Its use results in improved leveling characteristics and minimum floating, flooding and pigment settling. During pigment grinding, it breaks up agglomerates, permits the grinding action to be exerted on individual particles rather than upon floes. This results in faster grinding, higher amounts of pigments in the slurry, and reduced viscosity.
Synthetic waxes replacing natural in many industrial processes The synthetics are not subject to the variations found in natural waxes and they can be used alone or in blends. Nopcowax® 22-DS has extraordinary advantages well known to industry. As a mold lubricant and antiblocking agent in the treatment of rubber, metal and vinyls, it can be applied directly to mold surfaces to aid in mold release. It also has important uses in manufacturing adhesives, asphalt, metallic powders, paper coatings. Nopco Chemical Co., 60 Park Place, Newark, N.J.
