Spherical HDPE Micronized Wax is fine spherical high‑density polyethylene micronized powder developed as direct drop‑in replacement for Luwax AF30. Its regular spherical particle morphology delivers excellent dispersion in solvent‑based ink systems. Besides enhancing rub‑resistance and slip performance of dried printed ink layers, this wax powder effectively slows down pigment settling during ink storage. It features good thermal stability during high‑speed grinding and dispersion processes, mak

Product Detail

Product Overview

Spherical HDPE Micronized Wax (CAS 9002‑88‑4, Luwax AF30 Equivalent) is synthetic high‑density polyethylene manufactured into uniform spherical micron‑sized powder. Compared with conventionally ground irregular wax powder, spherical particles exhibit superior free‑flowing property and reduce heavy sedimentation tendency within highly pigmented solvent‑based ink formulations. After printing and solvent evaporation, wax particles migrate gradually to the ink surface and build a thin continuous lubricating protective layer. This surface layer greatly boosts rub‑resistance and scuff resistance for flexible packaging prints. This product serves as a cost‑effective alternative to imported Luwax AF30 for packaging ink manufacturers.

Key Features

Direct functional equivalent to Luwax AF30 for imported grade substitution
Uniform spherical particle shape, outstanding powder flowability, low agglomeration risk
Effective anti‑settling performance to restrain pigment sedimentation in solvent‑based inks
Remarkable improvement on rub‑resistance, scuff‑proof property and surface slip of printed film
Excellent thermal stability under ink grinding and high‑speed dispersion conditions
Good compatibility with nitrocellulose, polyamide, polyurethane and other solvent‑based ink resins
Specifically optimized for flexographic and gravure packaging ink production

Technical Specification

Chemical Name: Spherical HDPE Micronized Wax
CAS Number: 9002‑88‑4
Appearance: White fine spherical powder
Melting Point: 126‑132℃
Particle Size: Custom micron range
Equivalent Grade: Luwax AF30

Application Fields

Solvent‑based flexographic printing inks for flexible packaging
Solvent‑based gravure printing inks for plastic film and composite packaging
High‑pigment solvent printing varnishes requiring anti‑settling and rub‑resistant properties
Special industrial solvent‑borne coatings with slip modification requirements

Usage Recommendation

Typical recommended dosage ranges from 0.4‑3.2 % calculated on total formulation weight. Feed the micronized wax powder at the grinding or high‑speed dispersion stage during ink manufacturing. Sufficient dispersion is essential to achieve consistent anti‑settling and rub‑resistant results. Compatibility and performance trials in target formulas are strongly advised before formal mass production.

Storage & Handling

Store sealed sacks in dry and well‑ventilated warehouse. Keep away from direct sunlight and high‑temperature heat sources. Prevent moisture absorption. Prevent static‑caused dust hazards during material handling. Reseal packaging sacks immediately after partial discharging.

Safety Notice

This micronized wax powder is restricted to industrial formulation for ink and coating production, not suitable for food or cosmetic applications. Avoid inhalation of fine dust. Wear dust‑proof mask, safety goggles and protective gloves in operation. Please refer to the corresponding MSDS for detailed safety operation instructions.
