P1Wax Grade DF1

Technical datasheet

Product Description

P1Wax Grade DF1 is a low viscosity, low molecular weight homopolymer polyethylene wax in pastille form which is dust-free handling, produced in Thailand under the standard control to ensure consistent product quality.

It is used in a broad range of applications, including pigment and filler dispersants, slip agents and mold release agents for molding resins, modifiers for ink and paints, shortening of setting time, improve heat resistance and reduction of blend viscosity in hot melt adhesive and thermoplastic road marking.

Packing

P1WAX^TM is offered in multi package types. The standard type is 25 kg PP bag on pallet, 1.2 mt per pallet, 12 mt per 20’ container, 24 mt per 40’ container. (HS Code 34049000). See your P1WAX sales representative for packaging offerings and availability.

Storage

This product should be store in dry and dust free location at temperature below 50 ^oC and protected from moisture, contamination, direct sunlight and/or heat, well-ventilated area. The useful life of this product can be affected by storage and handling conditions.
