High quality micronized wax for powder coatings

Micronized waxes play a lubricating role in coatings, reducing the
coefficient of friction of the coating, thus improving the abrasion and
scratch resistance of the coating. For example, the addition of 1% wax
micropowder reduces the dynamic coefficient of friction of the coating film
from 0.35 to 0.25.
When the coating film is cooled, the wax particles precipitate from the
coating liquid and migrate to the coating surface, producing a matting
effect. In addition, wax micropowders with different particle sizes create
different texturizing effects.
Micronized wax can enhance the wetting and dispersion of pigment
agglomerates, so that the pigment coloring strength is increased. Generally
adding 1%~3% of wax micronized powder can increase the pigment coloring
strength by 10%~30%.
Micronized wax gives the coating film a pleasant texture, anti-adhesion and
stain resistance. Wax particles on the surface of the coating can reduce the
adhesion of stains or make stains easier to wipe off.
