Based on 2868 products - Last update on the Jun 26, 2025

Lubricants and waxes are known for their ability to optimize processing efficiency, reduce wear on machinery, enhance the surface properties of plastics, improve slip, improve anti-blocking, and release characteristics. Main applications of lubricants and waxes include packaging films, automotive parts, and consumer goods. 

Alternatives to lubricants and waxes include other processing aids and surface modifiers. A notable trend in the industry is the development of bio-based and environmentally friendly lubricants and waxes, driven by the demand for sustainable solutions. Sub-types of lubricants and waxes include polyethylene waxes, amide waxes, and silicone-based lubricants.
