The Difference Between Water-based Wax Dispersion And Wax Emulsion

The difference between water-based wax slurry and wax emulsion. The main difference between wax emulsion and wax slurry is the particle size, and the particle size determines its different application fields. Wax slurry is a wax dispersion developed for water-based systems. It can Significantly improve the surface anti-wear properties of ink, varnish and other carriers, and improve the wear resistance, slipperiness, anti-adhesion and other effects of the coating.

wax dispertions

The main application fields of wax slurry are: water-based ink, water-based varnish, wax water for shoes, leather finishing agent, textile printing slurry, water-based wood paint, water-based latex paint, and other water-based coatings.

The main performance characteristics of wax slurry are:
1. Use harder high-density polyethylene wax and medium-hardness wax as materials for compounding, with unique emulsification equipment and technology.
2. The slurry has excellent stability, is very easy to disperse, and is very convenient for applications in ink and other industries.
3. Wax slurry has good slippery, glossy and anti-adhesive properties.
4. Since the slurry is relatively alkaline, if it is to be used in an acidic system, it is recommended to dilute it with deionized water before use.

The advantages of wax emulsions and wax dispersions are ease of use, multiple product specifications, and a wide range of choices. The company can customize products to meet customer requirements. Its disadvantage is that it is necessary to fully consider the matching relationship with the ph value and ionicity of the water-based resin system, as well as the shelf life of wax emulsion products and the high and low temperature resistance of storage and transportation.
