Epolene® N-21 is a low molecular weight, medium density polyethylene wax that is used to as a lubricant in printing inks.
Epolene® N-21 is a polyethylene polymer with excellent resistance to solvents and oils. It is use din a variety of applications including cable filling, printing inks, hot melt adhesives, heat seal coatings, and cosmetics. In cable filling and flooding applications Epolene® N-21 improves slump resistance. When used in printing inks Epolene® N-21 increases the lubricity of the ink and improves scuff and rub resistance. It can also be used to modify the viscosity of hot melt adhesives to improve sag and run resistance. Epolene® N-21 can be blended
