What is polyethylene wax price?

Polyethylene wax is a chemical material. Polyethylene wax is white in shape of small beads or flakes, formed by ethylene polymerization rubber processing agent. Polyethylene wax has a high melting point, is hard and has a high gloss.

What is the polyethylene wax price? Polyethylene wax is widely used in masterbatch, granulation, plastic steel, PVC pipe, hot melt adhesive, rubber, ink, etc. The price of each is different, which is directly related to the price of raw materials and production process.

The main role of polyethylene wax in solvent-based coating is: matting, scratch resistance, anti-abrasion, anti-polishing, anti-carving, anti-adhesive, anti-sedimentation, thixotropy; good lubricity and processability; metal pigment positioning.

Polyethylene wax dissolves in solvent at high temperature (about 100-140℃), and precipitates when cooled to room temperature, and exists in coating in the form of microcrystals, because its thixotropy is conducive to the storage of coating, and after the application of coating construction, it can migrate to the surface layer of the coating film during solvent evaporation, and finally forms a “waxed” surface layer with other components of the coating.

Polyethylene wax as a plastic lubricant has both internal and external lubrication, but it is mainly external lubrication, that is, the effect of mold release; internal lubrication is the auxiliary effect, in the production of PVC will generally add stearic acid to improve the internal lubrication. Polyethylene wax is widely used, Tianshi wax powder polyethylene wax after process improvement, to ensure product quality at the same time also in the cost has been greatly reduced.
