Wax emulsion PE-60/1

Name
Wax emulsion PE-60/1
Product description

Wax emulsion PE-60/1 - solvent-free anionic emulsion of paraffin oil-in-water type (paraffin content 60±2%).

Our products

Wax emulsion - water repellent agent for the production of moisture-resistant chipboard, fiberboard, OSB, plywood. Lubrication of forms for formwork, building products.
Fields of application

Paraffin emulsion PE-60/1 is used in the woodworking industry for the production of moisture-resistant boards, paper and cardboard:

  • chipboard (particleboard),
  • fiber boards of medium (MDF) and high (HDF) density,
  • oriented strand boards (OSB),
  • wood-fiber boards of the “wet” production method,
  • plywood,
  • in the production of paper and cardboard products.

Paraffin emulsions can be used in the manufacture of concrete and reinforced concrete structures as a lubricant for molds and formwork, in the manufacture of special types of concrete.

Paraffin emulsion PE-60/1 is used as a lubricant:

  • lubricant for the production of glass fiber
  • in the textile industry: as a sizing agent to reduce yarn fluff; as a grease repellent.
  • lubricant for the production of electrical insulation tapes
  • lubrication of wood and metal products as protection against friction, corrosion prevention.

The application of paraffin emulsion in agriculture:

  • hydrophobization of granules in the production of mineral fertilizers.
Benefits

Advantages of the wax emulsion PE-60/1 over the other hydrophobic compositions:

  • The simple method of application.
  • Good compatibility with urea and melamine based resins.
  • Compatible with all types of adhesives and chemical additives.
  • High degree of homogenization.
  • Deeper penetration of small wax particles (about 1 micron) into the material and, consequently, more efficient hydrophobicity of wood fibers.
  • No influence on the adhesion strength between the plate and the coating.
  • Reduces dusting when sawing or sanding boards, which also increases the life of sanding belts.
  • Increases strength, smoothness and evenness of the processed plates.
  • Optimal storage temperature from + 5°C to + 40°C.
  • Emulsion is fireproof and environmentally friendly.

Advantages of the wax emulsion PE-60/1 insertion into wood-composite materials:

  • Protects against moisture during short and long-term exposure and, as a result, protects against swelling.
  • Increases the plates strength.
  • Reduces dusting when cutting and grinding plates, increasing the sanding belts life in 2 times or more.
  • Improves the layers structure formation.
  • Through the wax emulsion application reduces the phenol emission.
  • The adhesion of the molding material to the press equipment is reduced.
  • Reduces the consumption of binder by 10-20% without impairing the physical and mechanical properties of plates.

Consistent high quality and efficiency of the wax emulsion is confirmed by the positive results of many laboratories, as well as manufacturers of chipboard and fiber boards, MDF and laminate flooring.

Application

Operating principle

Directly hydrophobic effect of the paraffin emulsion is shown during the pressing plates in the hot state. The emulsion is applied before hot pressing of the plate. When heated, the emulsion decomposes and molten microparticles of paraffin settle and hydrophobize the plate. The application of a special emulsifiers system leads to the fact that the emulsion disintegrates before the binder hardens, which provides more reliable protection against penetration of water and moisture.

The emulsion amount for application depends on the desired properties of the final product, therefore, to determine the optimal amount, it is necessary to conduct individual tests.

In many cases, the introduction of 0.5-1.2% of the emulsion by weight of dry material is sufficient.
