POLYETHYLENE WAX FOR THE WOOD COATINGS INDUSTRY

摘要

The Lubrizol Corporation has introduced Lanco~(TM) 1580 LF, a hard, high-melting, polyethylene wax ideal for inclusion in coatings for wood furniture and fixtures to enhance surface protection. The product offers several key advantages including excellent scratch and abrasion resistance when used in paints and other coatings for wood finishes. This new additive's benefits extend to improved uniform matting, heightened polishing and metal marking resistance, increased surface slip, and - because of its high melting point (120-125° C) - improved blocking resistance.
