Product Description

FUNCTIONAL V-176 is an additive that confers a tack or stringiness to a lubricant. It may be used to provide adherence in way oils and chain lubricants, stringiness in greases, and aerosol resistance in mist and pneumatic-system lubricants. Diluted versions of FUNCTIONAL V-176 are available for lower viscosity and easier handling.

Composition:

The active polymeric ingredient in FUNCTIONAL V-176 is a polyisobutylene long-used in tackifiers. The diluent oil in FUNCTIONAL V-176 is light-colored paraffinic oil that does not require hazard labeling.

Handling:

Due to the viscosity of FUNCTIONAL V-176, elevated temperature (about 150°F (65°C) can facilitate handling, but temperatures over 200°F (95°C) should be avoided. Where higher temperatures are encountered, FUNCTIONAL V-188 is recommended instead. Safe handling precautions are the same as those to be taken with the base oil; see the current MSDS. The tackiness of the resulting lubricant can be lessened by shearing, so mechanical shearing during blending and handling should be minimized.
