CRAYVALLAC® WW-1001

CRAYVALLAC® WW-1001 is a 40% active dispersion of polyethylene wax in water. The low viscosity and high active content of this dispersion, together with freedom from dust, assist the efficiency of manufacturing processes. CRAYVALLAC® WW-1001 provides the formulator with the means of controlling the frictional characteristics of a coating as well as enhancing its surface protection properties.

Processing Information
  • CRAYVALLAC® WW-1001 is readily dispersed into coating formulations using a variety of techniques.
  • It also retards the settlement of pigments and assists in their re-dispersion.
  • The use of pre-dispersed waxes, such as CRAYVALLAC® WW-1001, avoids the inconveniences commonly associated with micronised powders.
  • Dispersions by nature are also easier and more efficient to incorporate, as they require less intensive processing.
