Case study Biocide-free cooling lubricants and minimum quantity cooling lubrication  

2-3 times more expensive than site-mixed concrete-concrete separating agents, approx. 30% more expensive than high-quality, solvent-based concrete separating agents for precast part plants. 

Direction of iimovation (from the standpoint of the SubChem research group - 6bl The advantage of vegetable-oil-based mould release agents is, on the one hand, in their character as renewable raw materials, their biodegradability and on the other hand the reduction of VOC emissions as well as risks of fire and explosion.
