Résumé : |
A wax emulsion is a stable mixture of one or more waxes in water. Waxes and water are normally immiscible but can be brought together stably by the use of surfactants and a clever preparation process. Strictly speaking a wax emulsion should be called a wax dispersion since the wax is solid at room temperature. However, because the preparation takes place above the melting point of the wax, the actual process is called emulsification, hence the name wax emulsion.
Wax Emulsions or Wax dispersions are widely used for optimizing the final performance of coating & inks by efficiently controlling surface properties, even if used in relatively small quantifies < 5%, - waxes enhance properties such as water repellency, slip, abrasion resistance anti-blocking and other critical properties in paints, coating, leather, wood coatings, foundries and ink areas. |
