Use of hard paraffins:

Hard paraffin waxes or Fischer-Tropsch waxes can be used in a wide variety of applications. In digital printing (aqueous), letterpress printing (aqueous), screen printing (aqueous) and in liquid coating (aqueous) production, the wax has different properties. It increases abrasion resistance, gliding properties, scratch resistance and wet abrasion resistance. In addition to these properties, the wax also has properties that help with wetting and have an anti-blocking effect. In addition to these properties, this hard paraffin also serves as a process aid. In liquid paint production, the wax also causes surface hardening.

We supply the wax offered here in powder form. These waxes in powder form are often somewhat more difficult to dose than granulate types. The goods are packed in 15 kg bags.
