Features & Benefits

Features & Benefits

These are specialty hybrid modified waxes and process additives for natural and synthetic rubber providing homogeneity in mixing of rubber compounds and better dispersion of pigment and filler in rubber mix. They improve scorch safety, cure rate and mechanical properties (tensile strength, elongation, hardness) of rubber compound. They also provide excellent weather resistance, UV resistance & ozone resistance.

Benefits of Waxes
  • Waxes are used to protect a coating and/or its substrate from cosmetic and physical damage
  • The hardness of the wax will determine its effectiveness in improving abrasion resistance
  • It improves the heat resistance and lowers viscosity for excellent bonding to the substrate
  • Further, they are used in curing compounds to trap the moisture in cement and give high curing efficiency
  • It also helps to eliminate the need for water and promotes a harder dust free surface
  • They have the structural and thermal stability needed in various hot melt applications
