Polyethylene wax and oxidized wax are indispensable chemical materials, which can be widely used in all walks of life. However, they also have many differences. I will give you a brief introduction to the differences between these two industrial materials.

Introduction to physical and chemical properties of polyethylene wax:

Polyethylene wax (PE wax), also known as polymer wax, is referred to as polyethylene wax. It is widely used because of its excellent cold resistance, heat resistance, chemical resistance and wear resistance. In normal production, this wax can be directly added to polyolefin processing as an additive, which can increase the optical translation and processing performance of the product. As a lubricant, its chemical properties are stable and its electrical properties are good.

The molecular chain of oxidized wax has a certain amount of carbonyl and hydroxyl groups. The oxidized polyethylene wax is an excellent new polar wax, so its compatibility with fillers, pigments and polar resins has been significantly improved. Its lubricity and dispersion are better than polyethylene wax, and it also has coupling property. Polyethylene wax has good compatibility with polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene paraffinic acid, ethylene propylene rubber and butyl rubber. It can improve the fluidity of polyethylene, polypropylene, ABS and the demoulding property of polymethyl methacrylate and polycarbonate. For PVC and other external lubricants, polyethylene wax has a stronger internal lubrication effect.

Function analysis of oxidized wax:

Oxidized wax has good compatibility with polyolefin resin, good moisture resistance at room temperature, strong chemical resistance, excellent electrical performance, can improve the appearance of finished products, has low viscosity, high softening point, good hardness and other special properties, non-toxic, good thermal stability, low high-temperature volatility, and has excellent external lubrication, strong internal lubrication, and coupling effect on the dispersion of fillers and pigments, It can improve the production efficiency of plastic processing and reduce the production cost. Polyethylene wax and oxidized wax are ideal products to replace montan wax, Sichuan wax, liquid paraffin, microcrystalline paraffin, natural paraffin, etc.
