APPLICATIONS :
LUBRICATION: 12-HSA can be used where JAYCASWAX is used, with better results. It can be used in glycerin free multi-purpose lithium, barium & calcium premium greased
COSMETICS: 12-HSA may be used for gelling liquid petrolatum to produce brilliance or it may be incorporated into color creams and vanishing creams to give a jelly-like feeling & a facility for easy liquefying on the skin.
PAINTS: 12-HSA is reacted with acrylic esters to produce hard, durable thermosetting polymers used in the high quality automotive, industrial appliance and metal decorative finishes
RUBBERS: 12-HSA functions as an activator and internal lubricant for natural & other synthetic rubbers.
