PFAS and Silicone-free lubricant additives for enhanced abrasion resistance in elastomers and seals floor and architectural coatings
| Plastics and elastomers used in industrial applications can experience significant wear and tear under dynamic conditions. Demand is increasing for customized solutions that enable compounders to manufacture products that better maintain their finished quality. At the same time, regulators are pushing for more sustainable materials, driving the evolution of application requirements.
Calyshield™ is a sustainable, high-performance scratch- & mar-resistance lubricant additive compatible with different polymeric matrices, rubbers and plastics. The end result? Your brand’s reputation for quality and durability is protected, while your customers benefit from a long-lasting, “like new” appearance that meets regulatory standards.

Customer success story:
Compounder for tier 1 automotive
“Before using the abrasion resistance additive, our EV seals couldn’t withstand the high 15,000 rpm speeds of our e-axles, leading to premature wear and forcing us to limit motor speed, reducing vehicle range. Since integrating Calyshield™, we’ve significantly improved seal durability, enabling higher rotational speeds without compromise. It’s been a simple yet transformative solution that enhanced both performance and efficiency.”
