company news about The role of water-based wax slurry in the leather industry

The role of water-based wax slurry in the leather industry. Leather wax powder is a modified powder with a certain fineness, which has the characteristics of stress discoloration, abrasion resistance, wear resistance, and improved hand feel. It is increasingly used in the leather industry. Leather water-based wax is a tasteless, non-toxic, non corrosive white lotion. It has excellent acid and alkali resistance. The wax slurry has good transparency and does not affect leveling. The wax slurry is mainly used for solvent wood paint, plastic paint, printing ink
Cover with varnish and other areas.
1. When using different wax slurries for leather top coating, some can increase the leather's luster or brightness, while others can produce a matte effect and present a genuine leather charm.
2. Secondly, the particle size requirement for water-based wax to produce brightness is very small, with a relatively simple composition. A homogeneous and continuous wax film is formed on the surface of the leather, which is very smooth at the micro level and has a strong reflection effect on light waves, thus giving it a glossy feel.
3. The water-based wax particles that produce extinction have a larger size, forming a heterogeneous and micro uneven surface on the leather surface, which strongly scatters light waves. The scattering effect is the fundamental reason for the extinction effect of the extinction agent. Adding water-based wax slurry to leather finishing agents mainly plays a role in filling coatings, improving coating texture, wear resistance, anti sticking, and increasing gloss. It can be divided into soft wax and hard wax in terms of use, which are respectively used for the bottom, middle, and top coating of leather; According to the ionic properties of lotion, it can be divided into non-ionic, anionic and cationic wax emulsions. It can be used in combination with finishing agents with different ionic properties. Leather customers are welcome to request samples for testing!
