Features Of Clariant Licowax KSL Flakes Wax

  1. Highly refined, low-viscosity polyethylene wax in uniform flake form for excellent flow and dispersion.

  2. Outstanding thermal stability and oxidation resistance up to 250 °C, ensuring process reliability in high-temperature compounding.

  3. Effective lubricant and processing aid that reduces melt viscosity and improves extrusion output without compromising mechanical properties.

  4. Low volatility and minimal odor—ideal for applications requiring low VOC emissions and regulatory compliance (e.g., FDA 21 CFR 178.3710).

  5. Consistent particle size distribution ensures reproducible dosing and homogeneous integration into polymer matrices.

Typical Applications Of Clariant Licowax KSL Flakes Wax

  1. Polyolefin masterbatches (PP, PE) as a dispersing and anti-blocking agent.

  2. Engineering thermoplastics (PA, PBT, PC) for mold release, surface gloss enhancement, and melt flow improvement.

  3. Hot-melt adhesives to optimize open time, set speed, and heat resistance.

  4. Color concentrates and additive masterbatches where pigment wetting and stabilization are critical.

  5. Wood-plastic composites (WPC) to reduce die buildup and improve surface finish.
