Product Applications
  • Ceridust® 2020 TP is recommended for solvent based coatings and inks where it improves rub and scratch resistance and lowers the coefficient of friction (slip).
  • Also the matting level can be influenced by the dosage of the wax.
  • It is an additive for powder coating to increase the output during extrusion process and to improve the flow ability of the powder.
  • It also improves slip properties, enhances scratch resistance and reduces gloss of the cured powder coating.
  • In addition it is also used as a degassing agent in powder coatings.
