will showcase another new line of die lubricant polymer technologies, specifically developed to help die casters improve operational efficiency, at the Gifa in Düsseldorf.
These new technologies are designed to alleviate key challenges faced in high-pressure die casting operations, by providing excellent solder protection and extended tooling life. This new family of polymers greatly minimizes ex-cavity build-up and runs extremely clean on dies, resulting in less downtime and higher-quality rates due to lower levels of porosity.
“By blending this entire series of unique proprietary polymers with other specialty materials, we’re able to create superior custom-formulated products. These customized solutions help die casters achieve the highest level of processing efficiencies and optimize profitability in a competitive die cast market,” says Andrea Colori, Chem-Trend’s European Business Director – Die Cast. “The technology in these polymers is highly effective – leading to more efficient die cooling, hot die adhesion, and enhanced solder protection. Customers can use less spray lubricant with shorter cycle times, thus improving operational efficiency and profitability.”
The new die lubricant technology continues Chem-Trend’s long tradition of bringing innovative breakthroughs to the industry.
In 1960, Chem-Trend produced the first ever water-based lubricant and in 1990 was the first release agent company to be awarded with the ISO 9001 certification.

The AIT Austrian Institute of Technology is leading the EU project “RecAL”, which focuses on sustainability, the circular economy and resource efficiency in the aluminium industry.
In the last decades, China’s annual output of primary aluminium has multiplied. At the same time, the country expanded on energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies.
Since the last aluminium trade fair, the Irish handling specialist Combilift has developed new products that will be presented in Düsseldorf in October 2024.
