Microcrystalline waxes for lubrication

Microcrystalline wax is mainly used in the field of industrial lubrication,
characterized by excellent lubricating properties, the specific applications
are as follows:
Industrial lubrication:
Microcrystalline wax as a lubricant, can reduce the friction between
mechanical parts, to extend the service life of equipment. Its lubricity
energy in its unique molecular structure: n-alkane content is low, the main
component is cyclic hydrocarbons (such as cycloalkanes), the larger the
molecular weight, the higher the content of isomeric alkanes and cycloalkanes
with a long side chain, the structure of this tendency to plastic flow under
force, elongation, high strength of the oil gel.
Rubber & Plastics Processing:
In rubber and plastics processing, microcrystalline wax is used as a
softening agent to improve processing performance, improve the flexibility
and aging resistance of products. For example, in plastics processing, it
enhances the fluidity and abrasion resistance of plastics while maintaining
the stability of the products.
