1. Dispersant · Polyethylene wax, especially modified polyethylene wax (such as EVA wax), is often used as a dispersant for EVA masterbatch due to its excellent dispersibility. EVA wax has a narrow molecular weight distribution, high thermal stability, and strong contact ability with various pigments, which can meet the needs of effective processing equipment and significantly improve the coloring ability of pigments and the quality of color masterbatch.
2. Lubricants: During the processing of EVA products, polyethylene wax can provide lubrication, improve the processing performance of the product, and enhance production efficiency. At the same time, it can enhance the glossiness and surface smoothness of the product, making the appearance of the product more beautiful.
3. Glossing agents and brighteners - Polyethylene wax can significantly enhance the glossiness of EVA products and increase their surface brightness. In industries such as coatings and inks, polyethylene wax is often used as a gloss or brightening agent to improve the visual effect of products.
4. Wear resistance and scratch resistance · Polyethylene wax has good wear resistance and scratch resistance, which can protect the surface of EVA products from damage. In application scenarios that require high wear resistance and scratch resistance, such as flooring, furniture, etc., the addition of polyethylene wax can significantly improve the durability of the product.
5. Other applications: Polyethylene wax can also be used to improve the printing performance of EVA products and enhance adhesion. In the hot melt adhesive industry, EVA wax is also widely used as it can provide a certain degree of adhesive strength to meet the bonding needs of specific products.
6. Safety: It is worth noting that polyethylene wax is allowed to be used in food packaging, cosmetics and packaging, personal hygiene products that come into contact with the human body, indicating its good safety. In summary, polyethylene wax is widely used in EVA products, including as a dispersant, lubricant, gloss agent, brightener, wear-resistant agent, and scratch resistant agent. These applications not only enhance the performance and quality of EVA products, but also meet the diverse needs of different industries for products. Meanwhile, the excellent performance and good safety of polyethylene wax have also made it widely used and recognized in the market.
