S-368-N5T

Polyethylene Wax

Description

Product Description

S-368 N5T is a stable water dispersible grade of polyethylene wax. This hydrophilic wax forms a true dispersion in water without the addition of co-solvents.

Application

S-368 N5T imparts lubricity, abrasion resistance and anti-blocking properties to aqueous-based systems. It also has been used successfully in laminating adhesives to improve die-cutting performance.

S-368 N5T requires no special handling or mixing equipment to produce stable dispersions of optimum particle size in aqueous media.

As part of Shamrock's S-Series waxes, it also features limited solubility in solvents, excellent recoatability, consistently narrow particle size distribution and compatibility with PTFE (particularly SST-2) for greater slip and easy dispersion with mild agitation (or high speed mixing equipment).
