  Main uses of polyethylene wax: low viscosity, high softening point, good hardness, good thermal stability, low high-temperature volatility, good pigment dispersibility, excellent lubricity, can improve plastic production efficiency. Good moisture resistance at room temperature, strong chemical resistance, good electrical properties, can improve the appearance of finished products. Due to its properties and good compatibility with polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene and other resins, it can be used as a lubricant for extrusion, calendering and injection. Masterbatch and filler masterbatch: can increase efficiency, prevent and overcome the adhesion of films, tubes and sheets, the smoothness and gloss of finished products, and the appearance of finished products. It can be used as a dispersant for concentrated masterbatches, filler masterbatches and degradable masterbatches of various thermoplastic resins, and can enhance the performance, surface gloss and thermal stability of HDPE, PP and PVC.

  Polyethylene wax is used as a lubricant for cable insulation materials, which can enhance filler diffusion, extrusion rate, and facilitate demolding. As a rubber additive, it can enhance filler diffusion, improve extrusion rate, in-mold flow, and facilitate demolding. With good light resistance and chemical properties, it can be used as a pigment carrier, improve the wear resistance of paints and inks, the dispersibility of pigments and fillers, prevent pigment settling, and can be used as a matting agent for paints and inks. Softener for natural or synthetic fibers, can improve the wear resistance, tear strength, wrinkle resistance and sewing ability of wrinkle-free garments, reduce needle cutting, and adjust the feel.

Polyethylene wax can improve the gloss, durability, hardness and wear resistance of paper, and improve water resistance and drug resistance, etc. It also increases the aesthetics of paper. It can be added to various paraffins to improve the performance of excellent electrical insulators, added to insulating oil, paraffin or microcrystalline wax to improve its softening temperature, viscosity and insulation performance. It can be used for moisture-proof coatings of cable insulation, capacitors and transformer windings.

Because the molecular chain of oxidized wax contains a certain amount of carbonyl and hydroxyl groups, it is an excellent new type of polar wax, so its compatibility with fillers, pigments and polar resins is improved, and its lubricity and dispersibility are superior to polyethylene wax. It also has coupling properties and is an upgraded product of PE wax. Oxidized wax has special properties such as low viscosity, high softening point, and good hardness, good thermal stability, low high-temperature volatility, good dispersibility of fillers and pigments, excellent external lubricity, strong internal lubrication, and coupling effect. It can improve the production efficiency of plastic processing, reduce production costs, has good compatibility with polyolefin resins, good moisture resistance at room temperature, strong chemical resistance, excellent electrical properties, and can improve the appearance of finished products.
