Ethylene dioleamide

Ethylene dioleamide (CAS 110-31-6) is a bis-amide derived from oleic acid and ethylenediamine; an internal lubricant, slip agent and surface modifier for polymer and rubber processing.

Where is Ethylene dioleamide used?

• Plastics processing: internal lubricant and slip additive
• Polyolefin and PVC compounds: improves mold release and reduces die buildup during extrusion
• Rubber and tire manufacturing: aids mixing dispersion and reduces compound sticking to processing equipment
• Metalworking lubricants: boundary lubrication in drawing and stamping compounds where metal-on-metal contact must be controlled
• It also acts as a plasticizer and softener.

Good to know: Purity specifications and particle size can vary by supplier; buyers should confirm suitability against their compounding process requirements.
