Description

Mineralhydrocarbonwax CAS NO 308069-08-1 is a highly refined, high-molecular-weight hydrocarbon derived from petroleum sources, characterized by its excellent stability and inertness. This material is valued for its ability to provide lubrication, moisture resistance, and protective barrier properties without reacting with other formulation components. It serves as a critical functional additive and base material across diverse industries, including adhesives, plastics, rubber, cosmetics, and food packaging, where consistent performance and purity are paramount.

Application

• Hot Melt Adhesives & Sealants: Acts as a key component to adjust viscosity, improve setting time, and enhance water resistance.
• Plastics & Rubber Compounding: Used as a processing aid and lubricant to improve flow, mold release, and surface finish.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Functions as an emollient, thickener, and barrier agent in lip balms, creams, and ointments.
• Food Contact Applications: Employed as a coating or glazing agent for fruits, cheeses, and confectionery, and in food packaging materials.
• Candles & Wax Blends: Serves as a base or modifier to control melting point, hardness, and burn characteristics.
• Paper & Corrugated Board: Provides moisture barrier properties in coatings for packaging and specialty papers.
• Investment Casting: Used in wax patterns for the lost-wax casting process due to its precise melting properties.
• Textile & Leather Finishing: Imparts water repellency and softness in finishing formulations.
