The Uses And Characteristics Of Oxidized Polyethylene Wax(OPE Wax)

The uses and characteristics of oxidized polyethylene wax are that the softening point of oxidized polyethylene wax is relatively high (above 100°C), close to high molecular weight polyethylene, while the melt viscosity and hardness are close to that of stone wax. As a lubricant, it has stable chemical properties and good electrical properties.

Oxidized polyethylene wax usage range:
1. In the production process of PVC film, it can improve the gloss and transparency of the film, and improve the longitudinal and transverse toughness of the film.
2. It can be used as a dispersant for inks and paints, and has good anti-settling effects, giving printed matter a good gloss and solid feel.
3. Used as internal dispersant in color processing.
4． It can improve the softening point of wax products, increase the strength of wax products and make the surface glossy. When the candle is lit, it will burn safely, brightly and without black smoke.
5． Used as an internal lubricant during the molding process of PVC profiles, pipes, and plastics, it can improve the toughness of plastic products, make the surface of the products smooth, and have a high pass rate.
6. Oxidized polyethylene wax emulsion is used in water-based ink, water-based glazing oil, agriculture, leather, shoe polish, forestry, wood industry, gardening industry, water-based paint, water-based paint, paper product adhesives, textiles Fabric softeners and water-resistant finishing and other fields.

Oxidized polyethylene wax, because of its high viscosity, high crystallinity and acidity (7 to 30), has a very obvious promotion effect on plasticization. It is very suitable for PVC special profiles, and a very small amount of addition can easily Good for promoting plasticization. In the initial stage of extrusion, these products stay in the PVC material longer, promoting the dispersion of the ingredients in the formula and making the mixing more uniform. In the later stages of extrusion, it will migrate to the surface between the material and the metal, showing external lubricity.
