| ICCONWAX
HMC are a series of high melting point prepared waxes engineered
to provide a single product line from which to select a wax optimized
for your specific requirements.
They
are produced by refining selected petroleum fractions, consists
of paraffinic, branched paraffinic and napthenic hydrocarbons,
ICCON's hard microcrystalline waxes are extensively used in wide
variety of industrial products, most often used in conjunction
with other materials or chemicals to impart specific properties.
It is recommended for use in Candle, Rubber Industries, Water
Proofing, Cosmetics, Adhesives etc.
CUP
& PAPER COATINGS
The addition of ICCONWAX HMC to a paraffin based coating
improves the adhesive properties, cohesive strength and flexibility
of packaging coatings. Features such as improved gloss and blocking
point, & reduced co-efficient of of friction of the coating
are achieved by adding 10% ICCONWAX HMC to paraffin wax.
ELECTRICAL
INSULATION
The ICCONWAX HMC offers good electrical insulation properties.
These products can provide a moisture barrier seal that acts as
a conformal coating, potting, filling or impregnant compound for
electrical components, hard waxes can also be used as a seal between
the leaves of foiling type capacitors.
HOT
MELT ADHESIVES :
Hot melt adhesives ICCONWASH HMC are compatible in adhesive systems
containing the most widely used copolymers & tackifying resins.
By formulating performance of the adhesive resistant to high temperatures,
the highest melting grades are most useful. The lower melting
grades most useful. The lower melting grades are most useful for
general purpose hot melts. All of the ICCONWAX HMC can be used
to formulate flexible adhesives and their low surface aids in
wetting many different surfaces.
HOT
MELT COATINGS:
ICCONWAX
HMC can be used to modify paraffin copolymer based coatings. Hara
microcrystalline waxes are used alone or in conjunction with the
softer, more flexible plastic waxes to provide the physical properties
desired. The addition of 10-20% ICCONWAX HMC stabilizes the floss
and improves the sealing strength of paraffin copolymer based
coatings.
INVESTMENT
CASTINGS:
ICCONWAX HMC hard waxes are used informing pattern waxes for metal
investment casting. These waxes provide good dimensional stability
and low ash to wax patterns. The flexibility of these waxes promotes
good adhesion to metal surfaces.
PRINTING
INKS, PAINTS AND SOLVENT BASED COATINGS:
ICCONWAX HMC can be added to printing inks and paints at levels
ranging from 0.5 to 20%. They provide improved rub and reduced
effect in printing inks. As additives to lacquers, paints, and
varnishes these waxes act as lubricants matting and antisoiling
agents, & reduce moisture vapour transmission.
