The Clariant Licowax series offers a versatile portfolio of high-performance polyethylene derivatives and modified waxes designed to optimize processing efficiency and end-product quality across coatings, plastics, adhesives, and specialty formulations. Combining tailored molecular architectures with advanced oxidation and micronization technologies, this series delivers superior lubrication, enhanced dispersion.
These engineered waxes act as multifunctional additives, reducing friction in polymer extrusion and injection molding to minimize energy consumption and equipment wear.
Their low melt viscosity (250–6,500 mm²/s) and narrow particle distribution ensure rapid integration into polar resins like PVC and polyolefins, improving pigment uniformity and surface gloss in masterbatches
Achieves uniform coating distribution and self-luminous effects through advanced leveling technology, improving visual aesthetics and defect reduction.
Combines anti-blocking and slip functionalities to optimize material release across plastics, textiles, and leather processing,thermal & mechanical stability.
Maintains consistent performance under 160-300°C processing conditions with low volatility (<0.5% weight loss at 200°C).
High hardness (3H-6H pencil hardness) and melting point (>180°C) adapt to extreme industrial environments,multi-material compatibility.
Compatible with PVC, HDPE/LDPE, PP, PS, and engineering plastics through dual dispersion mechanismsWater/solvent emulsification capability enables open-container processing flexibility.
Functional Versatility,acts as lubricant (internal/external), dispersant, and anti-oxidant in single formulation,Reduces masterbatch viscosity by 30-50% while enhancing pigment durability
