EPOLENE® DE-84P

EPOLENE® DE-84P is an oxidized high density low molecular weight polyethylene powder with exceptional hardness and low color used in PVC lubrication and emulsifiable applications. This material provides excellent lubrication for rigid PVC processing, providing an anti-sticking effect and efficient die lubrication. EPOLENE® DE-84P polymer has high thermal stability and tolerates higher processing temperatures without die build-up. It performs well in high-speed buffable floor finish emulsions, and provides excellent scuff and rub resistance for inks and coating applications.
