Deuteron® Wax PP/2 is suitable for a wide range of applications including:
- Wood and joinery coatings
- Metal coatings
- Flexographic inks
- Overprint varnishes
- Powder coatings
- Usage Information
The use of Deuteron® Wax PP/2 especially improves performance in:
- Matting with smooth and elegant feel
- Burnishing / Polishing resistance
- Reduced settling of silica and fillers
- Anti-BlockingPowder coatings
- Degasing
- Processing Information
- Deuteron® Wax PP/2 is easy to disperse and can be incorporated using a common high-speed stirrer. In low viscous systems it might be necessary to use a high shear dispersing unit to properly disperse the material.
- A pre-mix in water should contain a suitable cosolvent and about 2 % of an emulsifier.
- Suitable emulsifiers are ethoxylated grades (e.g. based on polysorbat or fat alco- hols) with an HLB value of 15.
