Oxidized polyethylene wax， the "oxidized" part refers to a treatment with oxygen, which introduces polar groups (like carboxylic acids and ketones) into its molecular structure. This crucial modification dramatically changes its properties and vastly expands its range of applications.

In short, its primary use is as a versatile additive and modifier to improve the performance of other materials.

Internal and External Lubricant: It reduces friction during processing (e.g., in extrusion, injection molding). It acts as an internal lubricant (between polymer chains) and an external one (between the polymer and the machine metal surface), leading to faster production speeds, lower energy consumption, and better surface finish on the final product.

Improving Pigment Dispersion in Masterbatches: It is an essential component in color and additive masterbatches (highly concentrated mixtures), ensuring the pigment is perfectly wetted and dispersed in the carrier resin.

It has excellent dispersibility in SPC: its polar functional groups can wrap around the surface of a large number of calcium carbonate particles, making them evenly dispersed in PVC resin and preventing agglomeration.

Textile Softeners: It is a key component in many textile softeners, providing a smooth, soft hand-feel to fabrics.

Oxidized polyethylene wax has many applications, but it works behind the scenes every day to improve the performance, quality, and durability of countless products you use every day.
