Micronized polyethylene wax
9002-88-4
These ethylene-based polymers are produced by a high pressure polymerization process. The product properties are primarily determined by the molecular weight, the density and the addition of other monomers. Products are available as powders, micropowders, granules or pastilles.
Polyethylene waxes are used as additives in a variety of markets and applications. They can be used in printing inks to improve rub resistance or in paints as a flattening and anti-settling agent. And they are excellent as dispersants and color enhancers in color concentrates or in wax compounds to increase hardness. Some of their other uses include improved black heel mark resistance and buffability in floor polishes, and as a lubricant for plastics processing.
