Overview
EPOLENE® N-11P is a polyethylene homopolymer with a low molecular weight. It is used primarily as a dispersing aid in color concentrates used in plastic applications. EPOLENE® N-11P is also used in paper coatings and printing inks to improve gloss and scuff resistance. It can be easily melt blended with other natural and synthetic waxes in order to increase abrasion resistance, tensile strength, and adhesion to fibrous substrates.
