Product Benefits
  • CRAYVALLAC® WN-1265 is primarily used to enhance the sandability of wood primers and sealers by preventing blocking and balling-up.
  • An additional advantage to be gained in this application is the absence of bloom when used in acid cured formulations.
  • CRAYVALLAC® WN-1265 is also an effective internal lubricant for plastic compounding.
  • CRAYVALLAC® WN-1265 is readily dispersed into coating formulations using a variety of techniques e.g. high-speed dispersers, bead mills and triple roll mills.
  • In general, micronised waxes are best incorporated into coating systems by pre mixing with the binder. Alternatively, waxes may be added to the formulation immediately following the dispersion stage but prior to the final letdown.
  • Due to the multitude of formulations, processing methods and application conditions used in the field, we strongly recommend that all products containing CRAYVALLAC® WN-1265 be tested thoroughly to ensure suitability for their intended end use.
