Oxidized Polyethylene Wax
CAS Number: 68441-17-8
Oxidized Polyethylene Wax is a polar PE wax with enhanced compatibility with polar polymers, pigments, and fillers compared to standard PE wax. It functions as an internal and external lubricant, dispersing agent, and surface modifier in PVC, polyolefin, and masterbatch processing. The oxidation introduces carboxyl and hydroxyl groups that improve pigment dispersion, anti-blocking, and surface slip.
