Licowax™ S flakes
Licowax S flakes is an acid wax used in a wide variety of applications, such as an external release agent (e.g. for thermosets and engineering plastics), emulsifier (e.g. for paraffin) and additives in care products (for its protection and gloss properties).
Minimize your environmental footprint with Licocare™ RBW Vita—a sustainable, bio-based wax derived from renewable rice bran oil, a byproduct of rice processing.
It provides similar functionality while meeting sustainability targets. Contact us for more information or to request a sample.
