GRAPHACE - Die Casting Lubricants
Die casting is a process where molten metal is poured into a mold at high pressure and solidified. During this process a die casting lubricant, the GRAPHACE Series, is necessary for the releasing of the finished product from the mold. Parts made in a typical die casting machine include aluminum and magnesium metal products (i.e. automotive parts, computer components). The GRAPHACE Series technology contributes to improving the productivity and work environment while maintaining efficiency.
Water-based Minumum Quantity Spray Lubricant
GRAPHACE MQ - Series performs as an excellent releasing agent in minimum quantity/fine spray application driven by high adhesive properties. High performance with little to no dilution allows how higher throughput in die casting applications while dramatically improving the environmental impact.

MQ-500
This has adhesive properties and good releasing properties over a wide temperature range and shows good mold releasing under a wide range of conditions.
MQ-600
The high temperature adhesion has been improved from that of MQ-500 and it even shows excellent adhesion on the high temperature parts where mold cooling is difficult.
For Zinc
HC-100
This product can be diluted in kerosene or water and has an established reputation for low mold soiling.
Water-Soluble Diluted Type (High releasing properties)
GL-3700
It shows good drying properties in the low mold temperature range and forms a strong release film. This can help shorten cycle times and reduce the amount of residual water.
TX-2400
These have excellent adhesion and releasing properties and form a uniform and strong release film over a wide range of mold temperatures. This type only produces a small amount of gas, so it realizes high quality casting.
