S-381-N5

Synthetic Polyethylene Wax

Description

Product Description

S-381 N5 is a modified, micronized blend of waxes for polypropylene-like performance with good UV resistance.

Application

S-381 N5 is a gloss control agent for resin-based coil, powder, wood and industrial coatings, as well as UV inks and coatings. With S-381 N5, the formulator can control gloss while retaining surface hardness characteristics. S-381 N5 can be stirred into coatings to produce satin or flat finishes with excellent mar resistance and COF reduction. A coating matted with S-381 N5 will have a surface free of pigment polishing or burnishing, typical problems experienced with silica. Ratios of silica to S-381 N5 should be 1:1 for satin finishes and 2:1 for flat finishes. It is easily dispersed using high speed, high shear mixers. NOTE: Do not dissolve. Do not heat above 140 degrees F.
