Wax coatings

Waxes are used in many applications to provide a functional coating. This ranges from where the wax is providing a barrier, as a low temperature melting, low viscosity diluent or providing gloss, release or hydrophobicity.

Coatings are commonly based on paraffin wax, microcrystalline wax or hardened vegetable oils. Other functionalities like specific adhesion or heat seal is enhanced by the addition of functional polymers, resins, pigments, dyes and other additives.
