Abstract: The invention relates to rice bran wax oxidates that have optionally been derivatized and to micronized wax additives (MWAs) comprising optionally derivatized rice bran wax oxidate, having a volume-average particle size d50 of between 1 and 50 ?m, and to the production thereof and use thereof in printing inks, paints and coatings.

Abstract: Described herein is an absorbent article having an absorbent core. The absorbent core includes a superabsorbent polymer material and an auxiliary adhesive. The auxiliary adhesive includes from about 20% to about 70% of a first polymer and from about 30% to about 80% of a second polymer. The auxiliary adhesive has a Shear Viscosity at 10 (1/s) at 230° C. of from about 300 mPa·s to about mPa·s.
