Fischer Tropsch Wax (FT Wax)

Brand: WSD CHEMICAL
Product Name: Fischer Tropsch Wax / FT Wax

1. Product Introduction

Fischer Tropsch Wax (FT Wax) is a high-performance saturated straight-chain alkane polymer synthesized from syngas or natural gas. With a typical molecular weight range of 500–1000, it features narrow carbon distribution, low volatility, and consistent hardness. Unlike traditional paraffin wax, our FT Wax delivers stable performance across a wide temperature range, making it a reliable processing additive for demanding industrial applications.

2. Key Product Properties

High melting point (typically 85 °C and above)

Low volatile content

Excellent thermal stability

Uniform particle size and dispersion

Good compatibility with PVC, polyolefins, adhesives, inks and bitumen

Low penetration and strong water resistance

3. Core Advantages

Reduces melt viscosity effectively, improving flow and processability

Enhances surface gloss and reduces processing torque during extrusion and injection molding

Extends plasticity range and improves high-temperature deformation resistance

Acts as a long-lasting external lubricant without compromising formulation transparency

Delivers consistent batch-to-batch quality for predictable production results

4. Main Applications

PVC Processing
Ideal for PVC profiles, pipes, fittings, wood-plastic composites and calcium-zinc stabilizer systems. It provides excellent mid-to-late stage lubrication, promotes surface smoothness and reduces equipment wear.

Masterbatch Industry
Works as a highly efficient dispersing lubricant for filled masterbatches, color masterbatches and functional masterbatches, helping inorganic fillers and pigments distribute more evenly.

Hot Melt Adhesives & Coatings
Adjusts product viscosity, hardness and open time, improving fluidity and coating uniformity in hot melt systems.

Bitumen & Asphalt Modification
Enhances asphalt compressibility, water resistance and high-temperature rutting resistance for road construction applications.

Ink & Coating Additives
Improves scratch resistance, slip effect and surface texture in industrial coatings, powder coatings and printing inks.
