6 applications of wax emulsion for acrylic paint

Polyethylene wax emulsion can effectively improve the wear resistance of the paint, effectively reducing the friction coefficient of the coating, playing a non-adhesive role, improve the service life.

Polyethylene wax emulsion has excellent resistance. High-density polyethylene wax emulsion has the advantages of high hardness and high solubility point.

1, Ink. PE wax emulsion can be added into the water-based ink to strengthen its anti-wear ability, reduce the friction of the printed surface.

2,  Varnish. Because of the hardness, wax emulsion OE-6108 applied to paper and film packaging etc. Water-based varnish on the role of particularly good. The amount of increase is usually 5-10% of the total composition.

3, Polyurethane coatings. Wax emulsions can enhance the anti-wear ability of waterborne polyurethane; for example, participate in the application of sealants for wood paneling.

4, Floor waxes, wax emulsions mixed with styrene-acrylic polymer dispersions can be used as formulations for dry and glossy waxes. The hardness and resistance to breakage of the wax make the floor wax very strong and durable. Compatible with all conventional polymer dispersions, resin solutions, plasticizers, film composition prefaces and surfaces.

5, Textiles. The high hardness and low friction of the wax emulsion, combined with the high stability of the diluted emulsion, make it the ideal component for textile finishing applications; to enhance the sewing force, abrasion and tear resistance of textiles etc.

6, Paper and wood panel. Waxes can be used in the combination of film forming aids to enhance the resistance of paper to scratching and mechanical action due to the high hardness of the wax emulsions within them.

Water-based wax emulsions can improve the wear resistance, scratch resistance and adhesion resistance of coatings. It can be used as a primer and topcoat for clear high gloss systems without affecting the clear gloss and recoat performance. The properties of the coating such as abrasion resistance, scratch resistance, hardening, smoothness and adhesion resistance are significantly improved.
