A-C Maleic Anhydride Copolymer Waxes - Description
These synthetic waxes are low molecular weight copolymers of maleic anhydride and propylene or ethylene. Functionalization of a non-polar polypropylene or ethylene with maleic anhydride provides the low molecular weight copolymers with both non-polar and polar characteristics. The grafting of maleic anhydride provides polarity without polymer degradation, such as oxidation will. The maleic anhydride provides the ability to boost adhesion, making them very suitable for adhesive applications. A patented Honeywell process which achieves a higher percentage of grafted maleic anhydride aids thermal stability over competitive versions.
