Microcrystalline wax used for plastic processing additive

Superior lubricating properties
Internal lubrication: Microcrystalline wax molecules disperse between polymer
chains in the melt, reducing intermolecular friction and thereby lowering
melt viscosity. This facilitates smoother processing, conserves energy, and
minimises equipment wear.
External lubrication: Microcrystalline wax migrates to the interface between
the melt and processing equipment, forming a lubricating film that prevents
melt adhesion to metal surfaces.
Improved demoulding properties
This is a direct manifestation of external lubrication. In processes such as
injection moulding, extrusion, and calendering, it significantly enhances the
efficiency of part ejection from moulds, reduces demoulding defects,
increases production efficiency, and extends mould service life.
