Ultrafine™ 1000 A is a finely micronized polyethylene wax powder recommended when maximum rub and mar resistance, block resistance, slip, re-coatability and elevated processing temperatures are required. The average particle size of Ultrafine 1000 A is 7 microns with a narrow distribution of particle sizes for ease of dispersion and uniformity during processing. Addition levels range from 0.5 to 3%, depending upon application requirements.
