 ADC is used as a foaming agent
for giving sponge effect in EVA,
PVC and other polymers. It is
used in sheets, injected
footwear, artificial leather cloth
etc.
 Very fine particle size product

16. PRODUCT U.S.P’S
ZINC STEARATE
 Serves as a anti tacking / anti sticking agent , dusted over rubber
sheets .
 Used in EVA footwear / compounds for curing / lubrication
 Made from Precipitation process/Thermal process.
 Excellent melt transparency.
 Better dispersion in base polymer/solvent.
 Thermally stable grades available.
 Free from Iron and heavy metallic impurities leading to extended
storage stability.
 Low electrolyte levels.
 Special drying process used to ensure low moisture level.

17. PRODUCT U.S.P’S
CALCIUM STEARATE
 UNIFLOW DLI is manufactured using semi wet , proprietory process
developed by our DSIR recognized RND division which ensures better
thermal stability
 Electrolyte content ( water insoluble impurities) are much less than
precipitation.
 Heavy metallic and other metallic impurities are much less , as
calcium chloride which is the source of many impurities is not used.
 Due to special grinding technology used by us, he average particle size
d50 is quite less, aiding proper dispersion, unlike other coarse fusion
materials. The semi-wet process gives finer particle size at chemical
reaction stage only ( cont…)

18. CALCIUM STEARATE ( cont..)
 Special drying system ( flash drying ) with air classifier to give fine
particle size and moisture below 1 %.
 Manufactured in plant having SS316 in all contact parts
 GMP certified plant and ISO 9001 certified company
 Very low iron content giving excellent thermal stability
 Exact stoichiometry control of reactants leading to a product with
excellent consistency.
 Company with excellent systems in place like incoming , in process
and final stage inspections, health and safety systems, environment
protection systems, SEDEX audit cleared for responsible sourcing.
