Bio-E.P.™ Wire Rope Lubricants

Bio-E.P.™ Wire Rope Lubricants ate ultimately biodegradable vegetable oils formulated with antiwear, extreme pressure (EP), anti-rust, oxidation inhibitors, and a tackifier. They are recommended for lubricating multi-strand cables and wire rope wound around central cores of steel or fiber, which are subject to heavy loading and/or shock loading. These biobased products provide improved fire resistance over equal viscosity petroleum products and contain no chlorine, zinc, or heavy metals. Performance is enhanced by use of the Stabilized HOBS's natural vegetable oil composition, which provides an oily boundary film. In addition, this oily film has a natural polarity to metal surfaces and helps clean and then penetrates deep into the inner core of the cable preventing rust and wear. The super high viscosity index of the Stabilized HOBS adds additional lubrication qualities to this high performance lubricant. Laboratory and field tests have shown that the products provide exceptional protection with excellent cold temperature pumpability.

Bio-Concrete™ Mold Release Fluids (Soy Based)

Bio-Concrete™ Mold Release Fluid (Plus Corrosion Inhibitor):
A BCI product that is highly effective as a mold release or parting compound for cast concrete products. This biobased formula results in smooth finishes on concrete cast from slurries. In addition to its performance as a parting compound, the product is effective as a rust preventative, protecting the metal forms from rusting during use and storage. The absence of rust on the forms eliminates staining of the formed piece and serious loss of the forms themselves. It allows the metal forms to stay clean; "hang-up" or excessive deposits on the form edges are virtually eliminated. This product is also biodegradable, which is highly important because of loss into the environment. Because of the high flash, the product is safer than petroleum products. This product is more fire resistant and contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Bio-Concrete™ Mold Release Fluid (Low Viscosity General Purpose):
A general purpose, lower cost product that is effective as a mold release or parting compound for cast concrete products. This biobased formula results in improved finishes on concrete cast from slurries, and may be used in applications where corrosion inhibition is not a concern. This product is also biodegradable, which is highly important because of loss into the environment. Because of the high flash, the product is also a safer product than petroleum solvents with comparative viscosity range. This product is more fire resistant and contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Bio-Concrete™ Mold Release Fluid (Modified):
Additive composition, surface tension, and viscosities of the Concrete Mold Release Fluid can be modified for special customer needs.
