Waterborne wax emulsions are widely used to enhance the surface properties of coatings to optimize the final properties of the product. By adding wax emulsion to enhance or improve product properties such as enhanced gloss, matting, enhanced hydrophobicity, improved soft touch of the coating film, enhanced abrasion resistance, scratch resistance, anti-corrosion and anti-blocking properties.
Based on the characteristic of wax emulsions, different types of wax emulsions can be used in leather finishing, paper, textile and film coatings, etc.
