Metal Salts

Metal Salts are specialty metallic stearates used as lubricants, stabilizers, release agents, acid scavengers, and processing aids in PVC, plastics, rubber, coatings, and related industrial formulations. Common grades include LSN (Lead Stearate Normal), Cast, ZNST (Zinc Stearate), MGST (Magnesium Stearate), and ALST (Aluminum Stearate).

Applications: Commonly used in PVC pipes and profiles, roofing and cladding, sheets and films, rubber compounds, coatings, plastics processing, and molded products to improve heat stability, reduce friction and sticking, enhance mold release, improve surface finish, and support smoother processing.
