  • Wax dispersion formulations, method of producing same, and uses
    Patent number: 9404007
    Abstract: Aqueous wax dispersions useful as surface modifiers for paints, inks and coatings. More particularly, aqueous particulate wax dispersions useful as surface modifiers to provide improved properties in primers, paints, inks and other coating formulations. The dispersions are stable, substantially homogenous, have a high solids concentration at low viscosities, and comply with the applicable FDA regulations for use in food packaging applications.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 31, 2013
    Date of Patent: August 2, 2016
