Applications
External lubricant for plastics, especially for rigid and flexible PVC.
It accelerates gelation and provides excellent anti-sticking properties without impairing the transparency.
Release agent for engineering resins like polyester or polyoxymethylene, effective external lubricant for opaque polycarbonate.
Hard, high-melting, emulsifiable polyethylene wax for dispersions used in polish, textile, leather and paper applications.
