MICROSPERSION 250 is a unique dispersion of finely
micronized polyethylene wax which has been modified for
use in aqueous systems and is then dispersed at 25% into
an acrylic vehicle. No dispersants have been used in order
to provide a trouble free, pourable wax dispersion. MICROSPERSION
250 allows the formulator to use highly efficient
micronized waxes in liquid form.
MICROSPERSION 250 has been formulated to provide
optimum rub resistance, anti-blocking and slip properties
when incorporated into aqueous systems. The unique properties
of MICROSPERSION 250 eliminate the problem of
"flotation" or "defoamer kickout" which is common when
using other types of waxes.
Additions of 2.0 - 8.0% (by weight) of MICROSPERSION
250 will provide optimum performance.
MICROSPERSION 250 is recommended for use in
the following areas:
Water reducible flexographic (paper or film), packaging
gravure (paper or carton) and publication gravure printing
inks; water reducible wood finishes, coil coatings,
industrial finishes and latex paints; aqueous coatings
for offset printed folding cartons of paper (Dahlgren,
Epic, etc.); aqueous overprint varnishes.
