Processing Information
  • CRAYVALLAC® WN-1495 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 at the first stage of formulation. Alternatively, waxes may be added to the formulation immediately following the dispersion stage but prior to the final letdown.
