Features Of Clariant Licowax PED 521 granules

  1. High-melting, fully hydrolyzed polyethylene wax with excellent thermal stability up to 140 °C.

  2. Free-flowing granular form ensures consistent dosing and improved handling in high-speed compounding lines.

  3. Low viscosity melt enables superior dispersion and surface migration control in polymer matrices.

  4. Non-ionic, non-toxic formulation compliant with major food-contact regulations (EU 10/2011, FDA 21 CFR §178.3710).

  5. Enhances scratch resistance and gloss uniformity without compromising mechanical properties of final compounds.

Typical Applications Of Clariant Licowax PED 521 granules

  1. PVC rigid profiles and window frames for improved extrusion efficiency and surface finish.

  2. Engineering thermoplastics (e.g., PA6, PBT) as an internal and external lubricant in injection molding.

  3. Masterbatches for color and additive concentrates requiring high thermal stability and low dust generation.

  4. Recycled polyolefin formulations to restore processability and reduce die buildup during reprocessing.
