| Message: | Micronized polyethylene wax is primarily employed in powder coatings to enhance scratch resistance, achieve a matt finish, impart a smooth tactile feel, and improve coating performance. Specific applications and characteristics are outlined below:
Core Functions
Scratch Resistance and Abrasion Resistance: Upon dispersion, the wax forms a protective layer that reduces the coefficient of friction, minimising scratches and polishing tendencies.
Matt Finish and Texture: Wax particles migrate to the surface, creating a matt effect and reducing gloss.
Smooth Handfeel: Imparts an exceptionally smooth texture to the coating, enhancing user experience.
Application Advantages
Processing Performance: Reduces extrusion torque and increases production output.
Pigment Dispersion: Enhances pigment wettability, improving colour strength.
Water Resistance: Hydrophobic coatings demonstrate greater resistance to humid environments. |
