PTFE wax: excellent lubrication, used in engineering materials.

Fischer-Tropsch Wax: high melting point, used for inks, hot melt adhesives.

Modified waxes

Oxidised polyethylene wax: improved polarity, used for pigment dispersion.

II. Main applications of micronized wax

Coatings and inks

Improve surface abrasion resistance and scratch resistance.

Improve levelling and prevent pigment settling.

Plastics and Rubber

As lubricant or mould releasing agent, improve processing efficiency.

Enhance surface gloss of products.

Cosmetics and skin care products

Used in foundations, lipsticks, etc. to improve spreading and setting effects.
