Polywax™ 655 polyethylene

Polywax™ 655 polyethylene by NuCera Solutions (Chase) is a fully saturated homopolymer of ethylene that exhibits a high degree of linearity and crystallinity. Acts as nucleating agent, release agent, lubricant, processing aids, slip / antiblock / antitack agents. Exhibits sharp melt point, fast recrystallization, low melt viscosity, excellent heat stability and resistance to chemical attack. Offers hardness relative to molecular weight as well as fast set time from melt phase. Polywax™ 655 polyethylene also provides fast migration to surface. Possesses precise performance for mold release applications. It is insoluble (<1%) in all solvent systems at room temperatures, limited solubility in ketones, esters, alcohols/elevated temperatures and greatest solubility in cyclic aliphatic, chlorinated as well as aromatic hydrocarbons/elevated temperatures.
