Innovators in Composite Wax Technology

Micro Powders is the innovation leader in the specialty wax additives market, with a portfolio of fine and coarse powders, composites and nanocomposites that improve performance in all types of paints and coatings.

These unique powders bring improved performance, stability and efficiency not possible by simply mixing two wax powders together. Most of these products have been approved and commercialized to replace PTFE-based wax additives, often with superior performance and value.

The “AL” additive series harnesses the power of aluminum oxide to provide unsurpassed scratch resistance while minimizing the safety, handling and incorporation issues associated with nanomaterials.

Ceramic additive series waxes achieve maximum abrasion resistance, and our graphene oxide nanocomposite powder can improve the corrosion resistance of powder coatings by up to 50% on both bare and treated steel.

EZ Dispersion Options

Wax and water don’t like each other, so we’ve made handling waxes easier with an extensive range of predispersed dry waxes called Microspersions®.

Or, if you prefer dry waxes, our Microspersion® EZ-2 is an ideal surfactant blend, and may be your new best friend when formulating with wax additives.
