MICROSPERSION® 1229-40

A nonionic water based dispersion of a highly engineered LDPE/ceramic/nanoceramic composite for abrasion resistance and surface durability


FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Convenient, ready-to-use, pourable nonionic wax dispersion
  • High performance additive for maximizing surface abrasion resistance (Taber) and film toughness
  • Fortified with two types of hard, inert ceramic particles
  • Low density polyethylene provides superior surface toughness, durability and mar resistance
  • Ideal for walking surfaces
  • Effective replacement for PTFE additives

RECOMMENDED ADDITION LEVELS

2.0-5.0% (on total formula weight)
