Product Description: Akrowax 195 is a fully refined microcrystalline wax derived from petroleum in bead form. This particular wax will migrate very slowly to the surface of a rubber part. For this reason it should not be used alone for ozone protection but combined with a low melt paraffin wax to provide a flexible antiozonant film. Typically, Akrowax 195 is used in the sealants industry where the wax’s ease of incorporation, firmness below melt point (roughly defined melt point is approximately 195?F) and flow properties are all advantageous. The high molecular weight gives this wax high melt point and firmness at room temperature. This wax complies with F.D.A. Regulations for use as indirect or direct food additives described in Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Chapter 1, Section 172.886 and 178.3710 as well as 177.2600, Rubber Articles Intended For Repeated Use.Information provided by Akrochem Corporation |
