- What is rigid PVC lubricant?
- Lubricant is the key ingredient for processing stronger, greener, higher quality rigid PVC products. Rheogistics focuses exclusively on the science of rigid PVC processing and the formulation of innovative, high quality, cost effective, consistent hydrocarbon wax based additives and lubricants for rigid PVC.
- What is polyethylene wax?
- Polyethylene Wax, commonly referred to as PE Wax, is an essential component in the plastics industry, specifically within Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) product manufacturing. PE Wax is a low molecular weight polyethylene polymer that has been refined and distilled to meet the unique needs of various industries, especially PVC manufacturing.
- What is a 617A polyethylene wax?
- 617A Polyethylene waxes are recognized in the PVC industry as very efficient external lubricants. Honeywell as the world’s first com- mercial manufacturer of low molecular weight polyolefin polymers offers a wide range of high quality PE-waxes specifically designed to perfectly meet the various requirements of PVC processors.
- What is PE wax & why is it important?
- PE Wax is often referred to as the “backbone” of PVC products due to the pivotal role it plays in the manufacturing process. The use of PE Wax in PVC production enhances the processing, performance, and appearance of the end product. It serves as a lubricant and processing aid, helping to improve flow properties and ease of processing.
- What lubricant does PVC use?
- Lubricant: PE Wax serves as an exceptional lubricant during the manufacturing of PVC. Its low viscosity and high melting point ensure that PVC can smoothly move through manufacturing machinery, reducing friction and preventing equipment damage.
- Why is PE wax used in PVC production?
- Heat Stabilizer: PE Wax’s high melting point makes it an excellent heat stabilizer. It prevents degradation of the PVC mixture during the heating phase of the production process. Benefits of PE Wax in PVC Industries Improved Product Quality: The use of PE Wax in PVC production significantly enhances the quality of the final product.
