Oxidized Polyethylene Wax Lubricant – High-Performance Additive for Plastics, Rubbers, and Coatings

Oxidized Polyethylene Wax Lubricant is a versatile, high-performance additive designed to enhance the processing and performance of plastics, rubbers, coatings, and adhesives. It is produced by the controlled oxidation of polyethylene, resulting in a wax that combines excellent thermal stability with improved polarity, making it compatible with a wide range of polymeric materials.

This lubricant provides superior surface modification and processing benefits. In plastic extrusion and injection molding, it reduces friction between the polymer melt and processing equipment, preventing sticking, die build-up, and surface imperfections. This ensures smoother surfaces on molded products and films, improves flow properties, and reduces energy consumption during processing.

In coatings and inks, oxidized polyethylene wax acts as a slip and anti-blocking agent. It prevents adhesion between layers, facilitates smooth spreading, and enhances the gloss and uniformity of finished surfaces. Its dispersion characteristics make it suitable for various resin systems, ensuring consistent performance in diverse formulations.

In rubber compounding, it functions as an internal and external lubricant, reducing compound viscosity, improving filler dispersion, and enhancing processing efficiency. This contributes to better mechanical properties, uniform thickness, and smoother surfaces in vulcanized products.

Additional benefits include improved slip and anti-blocking properties in films and sheets, enhanced scratch resistance, and reduced surface tackiness. Its thermal and chemical stability ensures performance under high-temperature processing and in contact with various additives and pigments.

Oxidized Polyethylene Wax Lubricant is compatible with polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, EVA, and other polymer matrices. Its multifunctional properties make it an essential additive in industries requiring high-quality surface finish, improved processing efficiency, and reliable product performance.
