Features	Benefits
Polymerised metallocene polyethylene waxes	Offer a wide range of benefits in printing and coating applications; Incorporated to specifically enhance performance, including surface modification, improved dispersion, increased scratch resistance, and texture effects
Controllable molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution	Performance characteristics are tuneable to meet the requirements of individual applications; Lower molecular weight waxes exhibit enhanced slip and rub resistance
High crystallinity and melting point	Higher molecular weight waxes provide a significant improvement in scratch resistance and film integrity; Narrow molecular weight distribution results in more predictable and consistent performance outcomes
Uniform particle size distribution	Enhanced blocking resistance and hardness provide increased resistance to rubbing and scratching
Controllable density of polymerized waxes	Optimises performance through effective dispersion and consistent film formation
	Desirable pigment/additive dispersion and uniformity within ink/coating; Promotes colour strength consistency, preventing settling or agglomeration of additive
