POLYETHYLENE EMULSIONS

Chemcor produces both High Density (HDPE) and Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) Emulsions. These water based emulsions are very fluid, easy to use surface modifiers for a wide range of water based products. They are typically manufactured as Anionic, Cationic and Nonionic emulsions. Anionic emulsions tend to have the best water resistance but may increase VOC's (volatile organic compounds) and be slightly less cost effective. Nonionic are the most common and versatile emulsions. All of these products have sub-micron wax particles and can be used at very high levels (10% plus) without hurting gloss. Following are a small sample of our Polyethylene Emulsions. Please contact us for a full listing or to request information on a grade you don't find here.

PROPERTIES: HDPE Emulsions: Rub Resistance, Slip, Heat Resistance, Anti-blocking, Durability.
                             LDPE Emulsions: Burnishability, Release, Rub Resistance, Slip

MARKETS: HDPE Emulsions: Graphic arts coatings, Paints, Floor Finishes, Textiles, Inks, Industrial Coatings and Leather Coatings.
                       LDPE Emulsions: Floor Finishes, Graphic Arts Coatings, Mold Release, Fruit Coatings, Textiles and Leather Coatings.
