Can wax additive improve the hardness of ink?

Micronized waxes of polyethylene wax, amide wax, ester wax and PTFE produced by tianshiwax are especially suitable for high grade coating systems such as furniture paint, home appliance paint, coil coating, can coating, powder coating, etc. They are also used in printing inks with high surface performance requirements.

It can be added directly into the coating system, easy to disperse, no need to grind, easy to use. Tianshi wax powder has excellent slip and anti-adhesive properties, anti-scratch and anti-metal scratches, easy to use and quick to use, and plays a matting role in wood paint, soft and smooth to the touch.

1, In wax for solvent-based coatings (industrial coatings, wood coatings, coil coatings).

Improve the scratch resistance and smoothness to prevent products from sticking to each other, improve the slip to prevent scuff marks produced by hard metal matting, reduce the precipitation of pigments, fillers and matting powder permeability good smooth and comfortable feel.

2, In the powder coating

Enhance the scratch resistance and smoothness to prevent the products from sticking to each other, improve the slipperiness to increase the fluidity of the coating excellent dirt resistance.

3, in the ink:
anti-abrasion, anti-scratch, anti-adhesive, and increase the slipperiness and other surface properties. Make paste and liquid ink with excellent anti-abrasive and anti-caking properties, can be widely used in solvent-based flat, gravure and offset surface printing and composite printing ink.

In the production of solid inks, the additives are first stirred in a high-speed stirrer (dissolver) and then evenly dispersed by a three-roller press. For liquid inks, stirrers with high shear forces such as dissolvers or sanders are used.

When added to the printing ink, in most cases, no additional grinding of the wax particles is required. Care should be taken not to heat the wax particles above 70°C during the dispersion process to avoid deformation and recrystallization of the wax particles after cooling, which may lead to coagulation and affect their properties.
