Global Micronized Wax Market to Witness Rapid Development During the Period 2017Posted by Pradnya on December 6th, 2018 Global Micronized Wax Market: Introduction Powdered wax characterized by particle size less than 10 micro meter is termed as micronized wax. Micronized wax commonly finds application as surface protection additive across a diverse set of industries. The type of additive used significantly impacts the overall surface finish. Use of micronized wax enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the end products. The lubricating property of micronized wax helps in easier application and improves the visual appeal of materials. Use of micronized waxes imparts properties such as abrasion resistance, slip resistance, and control of rheology, among others. Micronized waxes are being widely used across a wide range of applications such as paints & coatings, printing inks, adhesives & sealants, and plastics processing, among others. The manufacturers are providing wide range of micronized waxes for different type of coatings such as UV, coil, and wood, among others. The overall market is anticipated to show moderate growth over the forecast period. Global Micronized Wax Market: Dynamics The significant growth in the major end use industries such as paints, coatings and inks industry will drive the demand for micronized waxes. Waxes are used for a number of paints and coatings applications such as coil coatings, wood, powder, etc. The use of micronized waxes offers several benefits such as scratch resistance, reduced static and dynamic friction, matt finish, dirt repellence, release agent properties etc. Use of micronized waxes in certain applications also helps avail significant cost efficiencies.
