Akrochem Carnauba Wax is a natural occurring wax, extracted from the Carnauba Palm, which grows in Northern Brazil.
Akrochem Carnauba Wax is very hard and has good electrical properties.
It is used in rubber compounding (1-2%) to improve the surface of molded goods, as a mold release, and as a polish for hard rubber goods.
Akrochem Carnauba Wax is especially effective as an internal mold release agent in compounds of all types of fluorocarbon elastomers.
It does not affect processing safety, cure rate or cured physical properties and does not interfere with adhesion to metal when used at typical levels (up to 2 phr).
Akrochem Carnauba Wax is available in flaked or powdered forms, with our #3 NC Flake being the most widely used. |
