Part no:

Low speed texturising of polyester & nylon yarns fibre mineral lubricant 

  • Provides significant reduction in yarn / metal and yarn / yarn friction, 
  • Smooth running of the yarn in subsequent processing and good yarn unwinding characteristics
  • Significantly reduces oil splashing and misting during high speed texturing, helping to maintain clean running conditions.
  • Provides excellent anti-static properties to the yarn.
  • Non-corrosive to metals normally used in textile machinery.
  • Can be readily removed from fabric to low oil residues.
  • Good resistance to oxidation and yellowing
  • Self-emulsifiable in water
