What Are Polyethylene Wax Flakes?

Polyethylene wax flakes are synthetic, low-molecular-weight polyethylene polymers used as processing aids and performance additives. The free-flowing flake form supports efficient handling, automated feeding, and fast melting for consistent dispersion.

Common functions of PE wax flakes include:

• improving melt flow and processing stability
• internal and external lubrication
• pigment and filler dispersion support
• surface slip, anti-blocking, and scratch/mar resistance
• gloss enhancement or controlled matting (grade dependent)

What to Expect from a Polyethylene Wax Flakes Supplier

A reliable Polyethylene Wax Flakes Supplier should do more than ship material. Industrial buyers typically require consistent specifications, documentation, and technical fit for the application.

Key supplier criteria include:

• stable and repeatable QC results between batches
• clear grade selection (chemistry, melting point range, molecular weight, hardness)
• complete documentation package (COA, SDS, TDS)
• packaging flexibility for bulk procurement and automated dosing
• export-ready logistics and documentation for international trade

Key Properties of PE Wax Flakes

Thermal Stability

Grades are selected by melting point and thermal behavior to maintain performance under typical processing conditions. Many industrial grades fall within a melting range of approximately 100–135°C, depending on chemistry and molecular weight.

Internal and External Lubrication

• Internal lubrication can help reduce melt viscosity and improve flow
• External lubrication can help reduce sticking on metal surfaces, supporting smoother extrusion and molding

Dispersibility and De-agglomeration

Supports more uniform distribution of pigments, fillers, and additives, helping improve surface uniformity and reduce visible defects.

Compatibility by Chemistry

PE wax can be matched to system polarity and formulation requirements through:

• homopolymer grades for strong lubrication and hardness in many polymer systems
• oxidized grades for improved wetting and compatibility in more polar systems (including many water-based formulations)
• copolymer grades for flexibility and solubility/viscosity tuning in targeted applications

Operational and Product Benefits

Outcomes depend on formulation, equipment design, and operating conditions, but buyers typically use PE wax flakes to target:

Production Benefits

• improved processing stability and smoother flow due to reduced friction
• reduced risk of die buildup and deposits with appropriate grade selection
• potential torque and energy reduction in compatible systems
• Improved mold release and cleaner part ejection in many applications

Finished Product Benefits

• improved surface finish (gloss improvement or matting control, grade dependent)
• enhanced scratch and mar resistance in coatings and plastics
• anti-blocking and better storage stability in selected formulations
• improved dispersion consistency for better appearance and fewer defects

Polyethylene Wax Flakes Supplier Product Portfolio

We supply multiple PE wax flake types to fit different industrial requirements:

Homopolymer PE Wax Flakes

Best known for: strong lubrication, hard finish, high crystallinity
Typical use: PVC extrusion, masterbatch processing, printing inks, powder coatings

Oxidized PE Wax Flakes

Best known for: increased polarity, improved wetting, dispersion, and emulsifiability options
Typical use: water-based coatings, textile finishing, polish and floor-care emulsions

Copolymer PE Wax Grades

Best known for: flexibility, viscosity control, compatibility tuning
Typical use: hot melt adhesives, rubber compounds, cable and wire formulations

Micronized PE Wax

Best known for: fine particle size and dispersion efficiency (commonly 5–50 μm depending on grade)
Typical use: powder coatings, matte paints, wood coatings, specialty finishes

Through our Polyethylene Wax Flakes Supplier portfolio, we can recommend grades based on your resin type, processing temperature, dispersion needs, and surface targets.

Molecular Weight Selection Guide

• low MW (approx. 1,000–3,000 g/mol): often used for PVC lubrication systems, candles, and masterbatch processing
• medium MW (approx. 3,000–6,000 g/mol): commonly selected for hot melt adhesives and rubber processing aids
• high MW (approx. 6,000–10,000 g/mol): often used in higher-performance surface and release applications, including industrial and automotive coatings
• specialty grades: FDA-compliant options where required, and modified PE wax grades (such as maleic anhydride modified) to support adhesion in specific systems

Industries We Serve
