Micronized Silica, embedded in polymers (Fully coated)

Micronized polyolefin wax, spot coated with micronized PTFE

Micronized Fischer-Tropsch wax

IRM Synthetic waxes are produced by the Fischer-Tropsch process. This process converts natural gas, coal or other carbon rich stock into long chain paraffins. Fischer-Tropsch waxes are very hard, high melting, and white products, free of any aromatic impurities. They consist mainly of saturated, long straight-chain hydrocarbons with only a small number of iso-alkanes (methyl branches). Their high linearity and sharp carbon distribution produce a narrow melt range, making these waxes highly versatile for wax formulation. The oil content of synthetic waxes is very low and consists mainly of short-chain paraffins.

Non polar Polypropylene wax

Polyethylene Wax, also known as PE Wax, is an ultra low molecular weight polyethylene consisting of ethylene monomer chains. PE wax has a large variety of uses and applications. PE Wax is available from on-purpose production and as a byproduct of polyethylene production.

Water based emulsion of a micro-sized Polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE)

King Honor International KH FT WAX 120 is the coal-based Fischer-Tropsch wax. It has a higher melting point and the lower penetration. KH FT wax 120 is suitable to be used in road marking paints. Presently, the thermoplastic traffic marking paint is the most widely used on the roads as the autonomous vehicle guidance. It is generally composed of thermoplastic resin, pigments, and fillers. The addition of FT wax 120 can improve the dispersibility of pigment and filler in thermoplastic resin, and improve paint fluidity, prevent sedimentation, adjust viscosity, improved wear and stain resistance.

Petrolatum is derived from high-viscosity, paraffin-based crude oils. Petrolatums contain minute (or micro), crystalline waxes. Oil is occluded within and between these small crystals. Petrolatum contains both paraffinic and olefinic hydrocarbons; the olefinic hydrocarbons. Olefinic hydrocarbons give petrolatum its "slippery" (oleaginous) character.

PTFE – Micro-sized Polytetrafluorethylen

Marcus Oil and Chemical PR700 is a hard, high melting point, low viscosity, homopolymer polyethylene wax. Consistency is maintained in 500, 000 lb batches. It is a low molecular weight polyethylene wax which comes in in liquid, pastille, flake and powder form for convenience of use.

IRM's natural waxes, formulated using plant derived oils instead of petrochemicals, are commonly used in candle wax formulations. Our Indranat line of waxes can be mixed with paraffin and microcrystalline waxes to produce candle wax blends with varying melting points, textures, and burn time. Though hydrogenation soy oil is "transformed" into a solid which mimics the characteristics of beeswax. As a component of a wax blend, soy waxes impart characteristics such as lower melting point, higher malleability, and quicker burn times.

Biodegradable water-based wax emulsion of the sugar cane wax DEUREX® X 52

Yi Mei New Material Technology Oxidized PE Wax OPE816 is an excellent new type of polar wax. Because the molecular chain of oxidized polyethylene wax has a certain amount of carbonyl groups and hydroxyl groups, the compatibility with fillers, pigments, and polar resins is significantly improved. Wettability and d ispersibility in polar systems is better than polyethylene wax, and it also has coupling properties, its performance is equivalent to American Honeywell A-C wax.
