- Product Applications
- Licowax PE 520 is an efficient external lubricant for rigid PVC applications, providing excellent anti-sticking properties to the PVC melt, resulting in a smooth and glossy surface of the end article.
- As well it can be used as an internal lubricant for polyolefins providing flow improvement of PE compounds and as an release agent for elastomers and rubber applications.
- It is also an effective dispersing agent for PE masterbatch applications, providing excellent organoleptic properties, brilliant dispersing properties for pigments, fillers and additives as well as thermal stability.
- Licowax PE 520 can be used in hotmelt adhesives as viscosity modifier.
- Depending on the dosage, open and set time can be adjusted.
- It can also be used as a wax compound in printing inks to provide rub and scratch resistance as well as a slip modification additive.
- It is especially recommend for offset printing inks.
