CERETAN® ME 0825 WD

1 of 77 products in this brand
CERETAN® ME 0825 WD is a spherical, micronized, surface-modified Polyethylene wax and have uses in Paints and coatings and Printing Inks. This product have very good scratch- and abrasion resistance properties.CERETAN ® micronized waxes are predominantly produced using our highly advanced spraying technology leading to spherical particles. The spherical shape and the particles’ even surface help the dispersing process, reduce wax usage as well as dust formation. We guarantee D99 values to minimize oversized particles in your formulation.
