Behaviour and Effects
Deogum 80 acts as a multipurpose Processing Additive, which can be used in a broad range of elastomers, and acts as an internal lubricant. Deogum 80 achieves a clear flow improvement, and facilitates the demoulding. In peroxide cross-linked compounds lower mould fouling and better release effect are observed.

Application
Especially for compression, injection and transfer moulding, also for complicated undercuts.
