The primary industrial value of Fischer-Tropsch wax lies in its use as a lubricant, dispersant, and modifying additive, with core applications concentrated in plastics processing, inks and coatings, hot-melt adhesives, and rubber.
Plastics Processing: It is primarily used as an internal and external lubricant for plastics such as PVC, helping to disperse fillers and pigments, reduce processing viscosity, increase extrusion speed, and enhance the surface gloss of finished products.
Inks and Coatings: When added in the form of fine powder, it improves the abrasion resistance, scratch resistance, and gloss of inks; in powder coatings, it acts as a lubricant, reducing screw torque and energy consumption. It can also create special textured effects such as stripes and water ripples.
