Polyethylene wax is widely used because of its excellent cold resistance, heat resistance, chemical resistance and wear resistance. In normal production, this part of wax can be directly added to polyolefin processing as an additive, which can increase the luster and processing performance of the product. As a lubricant, it has stable chemical properties and good electrical properties.

Polyethylene wax has good compatibility with polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl wax, ethylene propylene rubber and butyl rubber. It can improve the fluidity of polyethylene, polypropylene and ABS and the demoulding property of polymethylmethacrylate and polycarbonate. Compared with other external lubricants, polyethylene wax has stronger internal lubrication for PVC.

What are the applications of polyethylene wax?

① Pe Wax for PVC stabilizer

1. Pure polyethylene wax ensures the stability of stabilizer.

2. Excellent lubrication performance, can delay plasticization and reduce torque.

3. Good thermal stability in the later stage, without oligomer, paraffin, etc.

4. It can improve the surface gloss of products.

② Pe Wax for hot melt adhesive

Polyethylene wax has good stability and better thermal stability when applied in hot melt adhesive. Therefore, it does not precipitate at high temperature, which will not have any impact on the appearance and properties of hot melt adhesive. The hot melt adhesive produced by adding polyethylene wax has the characteristics of good cold resistance, heat resistance, acid, alkali and salt medium corrosion resistance, thermal stability, anti slip, good fixation, high bonding strength and excellent temperature resistance.

Performance:

1. High compatibility (polarity adjustment)

2. Surface properties (gloss, smoothness, no precipitation)

3. Excellent thermal stability (does not affect the color of the resin and does not turn yellow)

4. High molecular weight polymer (low volatility, no migration)

5. Enhanced infiltration and adhesion

6. Increase strength

7. Improve the performance after aging

8. Adjust the opening time and curing time

③ Pe Wax for filling masterbatch

1. The product has good lubricity in the processing of filling masterbatch, and can effectively solve the precipitation of filling masterbatch products.

2. It can effectively reduce the smoke generated in the production environment, reduce material consumption, especially increase the output, effectively reduce the torque and head pressure of the twin-screw extrusion granulation unit, and reduce the host current.

3. When applied in plastic products, the product has uniform dispersion and obvious improvement in product appearance, which can greatly improve the surface finish and toughness of products.

④ Oxidized polyethlene wax

Ope wax has an acid value of 8-30 and a viscosity of 100-400.

The molecular chain of ope wax contains a certain amount of hydroxyl groups, and their compatibility with polar resin is significantly improved, which is better than polyethylene wax. It has good compatibility with rubber, plastic, paraffin and other materials. The internal and external lubrication of PVC is relatively balanced; The lubricity of oxidized polyethylene wax in the formula of hard transparent PVC is better than that of other lubricants.

Application:

1. Make internal dispersant in color masterbatch processing.

2. As an internal lubricant in the molding and processing of PVC profiles, pipes and plastics, it can improve the toughness of plastic products, make the surface of products smooth and have a high qualified rate.

3. In the production process of PVC film, it can improve the luster and transparency of the film and the longitudinal and transverse toughness of the film.

4. Used in water-based coatings and inks, varnishes, polishes and textiles to improve surface properties, including scratch resistance and wear resistance, by reducing the coefficient of friction.

5. It can improve the softening point of wax products, increase the strength of wax products, and make the surface gloss good. When the candle is lit, it burns safely, bright and free of black smoke.

6. In textiles, it can help improve the sewing ability and fabric cutting performance, and prolong the service life of the cutting machine.

7. It can be emulsified and used in papermaking, printing and dyeing and other industries.

8. It can be used in the production of hot melt adhesive.

⑤EVA wax

EVA wax has VA content of 4-15 and viscosity of 50-300.

EVA wax is a low molecular weight copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate. It has polar groups in the structure, so it can improve the affinity with inorganic substances and the compatibility with polar resins.

Application:

1. It is an effective dispersant in the production of color masterbatch. It can effectively improve the brightness of the color of the product, has high melt viscosity and high affinity with pigments, and is especially suitable for dispersing carbon black and difficult to disperse pigments.

2. It can be used as filler between cable bundle and outer sheath during cable manufacturing, and can also be used as candle and adhesive.

3. Used in solvent based coatings to control rheology and provide metal pigment orientation. Widely used in automotive primer.

⑥ Fischer Tropsch wax

Fischer Tropsch wax is a methylene polymer and an alkane polymer synthesized from hydrocarbon based synthetic gas or natural gas. It mainly relies on high-quality and cheap raw materials of coal chemical industry for iron-based or cobalt based synthesis, which has obvious advantages over the price of crude oil wax.

Application:

1. Hot melt adhesive: improve the fluidity of products based on polyolefin or EVA.

2. PVC Plastics: in many thermoplastics, as internal and external lubricants, it can improve the fluidity of PVC, PP, PE and ABS; Demoulding property of PMMA and PC.

3. Thermoplastic road sign: Based on hydrocarbon resin, it increases fluidity, heat resistance, scratch resistance, rolling resistance and good pollution resistance.

4. Color Masterbatch: as the dispersant of pigment and filler of plastic masterbatch, it can very well improve the dispersion and lubrication effect of pigment and filler, such as polyolefin, ABS, PS masterbatch, chemical fiber masterbatch (such as polypropylene and polyester masterbatch), engineering plastic masterbatch, etc.

5. Optical cable filling: improve the shielding effect of moisture erosion.

6. Rubber: protect rubber from electrostatic ozone, improve the dispersion of carbon black in rubber, and improve wear resistance and scratch resistance.

7. Candle crayon: improve the hardness, opacity and mechanical properties of candle crayon, prolong the burning time of candle, and prevent cracking, dumping and tears in candle.

8. Other fields: such as elastomer, used as lubricant and dispersant; In powder coating, the fluidity of powder can be improved; After micronization, it can be used in coatings and inks.
