Water Based wax Emulsion Are Completely Solvent Free

Wax emulsions are now well established and extensively used in various aqueous formulations. These ready-to-use wax emulsions can be easily incorporated into a formula by simple mixing. 

The wax properties that have the greatest impact on formulation performances include:
 

1. The Melting Point: When curing is required, it is important that the wax has a lower melting point than the curing temperature. Thus, the wax can: 
   
    

   

   
   

1. The Coating Thickness Layer: In order to maximize the wax effects, it is important to have the highest dried wax density to be at dried film surface.
   
    

   Hence, the wax emulsion should have a particle size as closest as possible to the thickness of the coating layer

   
   

   Sometimes a wax emulsion with a smaller particle size performs equally well, provided that the concentration is correctly adapted.

1. pH of the Wax Emulsion should be within approximately one unit of the system to which it is added. 

2. Benefits of Wax Emulsions

   
   

   Waxes are typical additives that significantly influence the surface properties of any coatings by modifying the surface free energy. This has an impact on properties described below. All of them are critical properties in the paint, coating and ink applications. Hence, waxes are often classified as Surface Conditioner or Modifier Additives.
   
   
    

   Wax Emulsions as Anti-block Agents

   
   Anti-blocking is a term defining a non-stick condition between two surfaces or the resistance to adhesion between two surfaces under the influence of:
    

   • Temperature
   • Relative humidity, or
   • Pressure

   
   A very well-known example of a blocking condition is when a freshly painted window frame is closed too soon. Sometimes, it can be very difficult to open the window again. Factors affecting blocking include:
    

   • 
     

   
   Wax emulsions as anti-blocking agents are also used extensively for items that are coated, dried and immediately stacked, rolled up for storage or shipment.

   1. Oxidized polyethylene wax is a synthetic wax. It has different melting point, hardness, and density, polyethylene wax is a very good choice under the high temperature condition. Wax emulsion refers to the water-based system with the particle size distribution below 1 μ m, distinguished by the emulsion iconicity, it can be non-ionic, anionic, and cationic. Wax emulsion is different from wax dispersion, it has no matting effect, and be used for coating and inks which has high requirement on gloss.
