LP1024P is a ''Super Refined'' PE wax derived from an HDPE process in the form of white powder. Consequently it is an extremely clean, Low Viscosity (10-40 cps) pretty hard (Penetration Index <1) Wax that has found admirers in the Hot Melt Adhesive Industry.
Key Benefits recognised in the Hot Melt Adhesive Application include:-
Very Low Volatiles due to the Double Refining Process
Low Viscosity which promotes wettability
Adjust Open and Set time
Enhanced heat resistance - Best in Class Thermal Resistant grade with higher dropping point and hardness than other PE Waxes
Partial replacement of FT wax (e.g. m-PO base HMA for Packaging applications) for overall cost reduction.
This grade is also used in the Paints/ Coatings/Inks Industry in its Micronised form (Please ask for details)
LP1024P is packaged in 20kgs bags and is supplied on shrink-wrapped pallets of 1400kgs each .
