Textile Lubricants

Powered by FUNCTIONAL technology

Textile lubricants and knitting oils protect needles, sinkers, cams, guides, and other rapidly moving components in high-speed knitting, weaving, and fiber-processing equipment. These low-viscosity oils must spread quickly while resisting sling-off, dripping, and migration that can leave machinery underlubricated or contaminate textile products.

FUNCTIONAL colorless tackifiers improve adhesion, cohesive strength, and film retention without adding unwanted color to the finished lubricant. This allows formulators to add controlled tack to light-colored, low-viscosity textile oils while balancing pumpability, application, lubricant retention, and high-speed equipment performance.
