Fischer-Tropsch Wax
The Fischer-Tropsch wax with a high melting point (generally higher than 85°) is mainly composed of linear, saturated high-carbon alkanes with a relative molecular mass of 500-1000, which gives this chemical a fine crystal structure, high melting point, and narrow Melting point range, low oil content, low penetration, low mobility, low melt viscosity, hardness, wear-resistance, and high stability.
Fischer-Tropsch wax can be used in plastic processing, such as injection molding, extrusion, and pelletizing industries. In the production process of masterbatch and modified plastics, Fischer-Tropsch wax contributes to the dispersion of fillers and excellent smoothness during mixing. Ft wax can be used as an external lubricant for PVC. The low viscosity can increase the production speed of the product. Fischer tropsch wax can help the dispersion of pigments and fillers during mixing. It is especially useful in the extrusion of high-viscosity systems. It is more than ordinary PE wax. 40-50% less, and can significantly improve the surface gloss of the product (in terms of gloss, it can replace carnauba wax). When using intense colors, the melted Fischer-Tropsch wax can effectively wet the dye and reduce the extrusion viscosity.
Features of Fischer-Tropsch Wax
Fischer tropsch wax has a fine crystal structure. Ft wax alao have the characteristic of high melting point, narrow melting point range, low oil content, low permeability, low fluidity, low melt viscosity, high hardness, wear resistance, and high stability.
