Westlake Epolene® N-14P Nonemulsifiable - Low Molecular Weight Polyethylene Polymer (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE)
Material Notes:	Description: Epolene N-14P is a polyethylene (PE) homopolymer powder that can easily be melt blended with natural or synthetic waxes to increase the tensile strength of wax blends, improve the gloss of paper coatings, aid in pigment dispersion and mold release, and improve scuff and rub off resistance in printing inks. For these applications, six Epolene N-types, differing mainly in viscosity, are available to choose from (Epolene N-10, N-11, N-14, N-30, N-34, and N-35). Key Attributes: Aids in pigment dispersion Easy to melt blend with natural or synthetic waxes Improves physical properties of paper coatings Increases scuff and rub off resistance in inks Low density polyethylene (PE) Application/Uses: Automotive Building and Construction Hot Melt Adhesives Packaging Solventborne Adhesives Wax Modification Information provided by Westlake Chemical
