Products in Additives: Waxes

Candelilla is a unique natural wax with properties not exhibited by other waxes. With a natural resin content it provides excellent film forming capabilities, provides flex and gloss to stick formulations and promotes reliable gelling capabilities.

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.

IRM-Alpha 2440 is normal alpha olephins. Hence they possess highly accessible, terminal, double-bonds. This reactive potential renders these products ideal for manufacturing numerous products. The product is manufactured in the USA by oligomerizing ethylene. The wax-like, higher alpha olefins constitute a small proportion of the total alpha olefin production. So customers are advised to plan their usage with their IRM salesperson. Normal alpha olefins or their derivatives are employed in conjuction with polyethylene co-monomers, plasticizers, synthetic motor oils, lubricants, automotive additives, surfactants, and paper sizing. IRM Alpha Olefins provide versatile tools and components for many other specific applications.

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. This material is available in both HDPE and LDPE forms.As there are many grades and types available from IRM, please inquire so that one of our knowledgeable representatives can assist you in locating the correct grade that matches your requirements.

Slack waxes, as opposed to fully refined waxes, have an oil content of from 5 to 30%, depending on the product. They are a welcome by-product of the production of lubricating oils. They can be productively employed in many industrial processes as they are; or they can be mixed, blended, or further refined. The melting points of slack wax varies from 105°F to 150°F. Some examples of applications for slack waxes: in wax emulsions, as binders and water-proofing in artificial woods; in matches; in jar candles; in rust-protection products; in industrial lubricants; in arena-footing; in soil or turf protection; and in fireplace products.

Microcrystalline waxes are elastic and often "sticky" or "tacky". This is because of the high proportion of multi-branched hydrocarbon chains (iso-paraffins) as opposed to straight-branched chains (normals). While normal paraffins form large crystals, iso-normal paraffins form micro-crystals. These small crystals give an amorphous structure to the product making our Indramic products very flexible in contrast to the brittle nature of normal paraffins.

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.

A mineral oil and special wax defoamer for use in metalworking lubricants. Primary applications include both petroleum and vegetable based soluble oils and tank side defoaming.

FOAM BAN® 3057 is a mineral oil based, non-silicone or silica, containing light cream-colored opaque liquid antifoaming agent for tank-side and soluble oil metalworking fluids with improved dispersability in water. It maintains its efficiency in use under constant recycling that occurs in machining operations that utilize filtration. This efficiency is due to the optimized particle size of FOAM BAN® 3057. Finishing operations such as painting, plating or other surface treatments are unaffected by its use.

Kemfluid 206 is a polyethylene wax, used in extrusion of rigid or soft PVC. Giving rigid shiny surfaces.
