Synonyms: Poly (ethylene), Polyethylene, pe wax

 

FORMULA: C₂H₄

 

M.W.: 28.05

 

CAS NO.: 9002-88-4

 

DESCRIPTION: White powdery, lumpy, or flaky product, non-toxic, concentrated distribution of molecular weight, specific gravity about 0.9 with high softening point but low fusion viscosity. It has good dispersion and fluidity, good electrical property and demoulding property, also with good light-resistant and chemical-resistant properties. It is soluble with polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl acetate, ethyl-propyl rubber, butyl rubber, etc. The solubility is lower with polymethyl methacrylate, polystyrene, ABS, PVC, etc. It is soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons.

 

SPECIFICATIONS:

 

Uses: IT is used as processing auxiliary for PVC pipes, special-shaped materials, film, wire and cable and other plastics and rubber. It is also used as the lubricant and demoulding agent of polyolefins and PVC. It can improve the fluidity of polyethylene, polypropylene and ABS and the demoulding property of polymethyl methacrylate and polycarbonate. For PVC, the product has better internal lubrication as compared with other external lubricants. It can be used as lubricant and dispersing agent for plastics color master to improve the dispersion of filler or pigment. It is also used as the processing modifier for plastics and elastomers, the ink paste polisher, paper coating and in candle.

PACKING: packed in 25 kg in woven bags lined with plastic bags, 15mt/20’fcl.
