HYDROCARBON WAX (PVC / HDPE GRADE )
PACKING : 30 KGS BAG
We are one of the leading manufacturers of all types of Industrial Waxes including Hydrocarbon Wax (PVC Grade).

Hydrocarbon Wax is an excellent external lubricant for PVC Processing. PVC has natural tendency of sticking to metal at the time of processing and hence it is not lubricated externally and as such the extrusion results are not satisfactory. It is also used in several industrial applications like manufacturing PVC pipes. The Hydrocarbon Wax is widely used as an electrical insulation material. This Hydrocarbon Wax is also used in cosmetic industries because it is resistant to moisture and oxidation and gives a nice gloss to lipsticks, eye shadows, foundation, etc.
