Akrochem Ceresin Wax is a mineral wax, which like the paraffins, consists of a group of hydrocarbons related to methane.
Ceresine occurs naturally as Ozokerite: market grades are purified Ozokerite obtained from lignites.
Grades are white or yellow in color, odorless, and amorphous (non-crystalline).
Ceresin waxes are important in rubber compounding due to their low acid number (less interference with cure) and inert qualities.
They improve processing and the surface finish of molded goods.
The pastilled form of Ceresin wax is a convenient, easy-to-weigh form of this wax. |
