MICROSPERSION® 123AL-40

A nonionic water based dispersion of a highly engineered LDPE/aluminum oxide nanocomposite for unsurpassed scratch and scuff resistance


FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Convenient, ready-to-use, pourable nonionic wax dispersion
  • Maximum scratch and abrasion resistance for anti-slip surfaces
  • LDPE composite reinforced with 300 nm aluminum oxide nanoparticles (Mohs Hardness 9)
  • Provides excellent antiblocking properties
  • Does not lower COF like high density polyethylene grades
  • Composite wax/aluminum oxide particle is less abrasive on processing equipment compared to free aluminum oxide
