LS-1608-AH

Type: Paraffin Wax (Fischer-Tropsch)

Development / Applications

LS-1608-AH is primarily an external lubricant for processing rigid and flexible PVC. Its solubility in PVC is moderate; the recommended dosage ranges from 0.3 to 2.5 phr depending on process conditions. Being a synthetic wax, LS-1608-AH is completely hydrophobic and provides a good surface finish on finished products. In rigid PVC, compared to other traditional paraffinic waxes, this wax offers greater lubrication efficiency, allowing for a 15% dosage reduction. Increased productivity and reduced amperage are observed during the extrusion process. This grade is NSF approved and can be used as a substitute ingredient in accordance with PPI.
