EPOLENE® N-14 Polymer
EPOLENE® N-14 is a relatively low–molecular weight polyethylene wax commonly used as a mold release additive and lubricant in rubber processing. It also provides wax modification.
EPOLENE® N-14 is a low–molecular weight polyethylene polymer wax typically used as a mold release additive and processing aid in rubber applications. This polymer may also be used as an extrusion and calendering aid for vinyl applications.
In coating, ink, and adhesive applications, EPOLENE® N-14 is used as a wax modifier for natural or synthetic wax to improve properties such as tensile strength, abrasion resistance, gloss, and adhesion to fibrous substrates. Since the EPOLENE® N-14 polymer has a low coefficient of friction, it functions in packaging applications to improve the scuff resistance of paper coatings and printing inks. Compared to other EPOLENE® nonemulsifiable polyethylene wax grades, EPOLENE® N-14 is lower in molecular weight, allowing lower formulation viscosities and cloud points to be achieved where necessary.
Provides wax modification of natural and synthetic waxes Easy to blend with natural and synthetic waxes Low-density polyethylene polymer Lower in molecular weight, facilitating lower viscosities and cloud points Improves mold fill and physical properties of rubber compounds Increases scuff and rub resistance in inks Improved physical properties of paper coatings
Problems Solved
Difficulty blending other polyethylene wax additives with natural or synthetic waxes Poor rubber compound mold fill performance or loss of physical properties Low scuff or abrasion resistance of inks or coatings Insufficient gloss of paper coatings
Applications
Hot-melt adhesives Solvent-based adhesives Wax modification Printing inks Building and construction Packaging Paper coatings Rubber processing
EPOLENE® polymers are effective modifiers for EVA and metallocene based hot melt adhesives and can be used to partially replace Fischer - Tropsch waxes.
