In waterborne wood finishes, achieving high scratch resistance without sacrificing clarity is challenging. Wax dispersions provide anti-scratch protection, improved open time, and surface smoothness.
Anti-Scratch Layer: Reduces micro-scratches from daily use.
Slip & Touch: Improves hand feel and furniture usability.
Open Time Extension: Better leveling in ambient conditions
PE or PP wax dispersions: 0.5–2.0%
Anionic/Non-ionic systems: compatible with acrylic or PU
| Feature | With Wax | Without Wax |
|---|---|---|
| Scratch Rating (DIN) | 4–5 | 2–3 |
| Open Time (min) | 6–8 | 3–4 |
| Gloss @ 60° | 80–85 GU | 85–88 GU |
With wax dispersions, water-based wood coatings can achieve superior scratch resistance, improved slip, and optimized open time—without compromising clarity or film appearance. These advantages make them ideal for high-end furniture, cabinetry, and architectural wood surfaces.
