Oxidized polyethylene (PE) wax is a resin that offers high bond strength and improved adherence when used in varnishes, inks, coatings, and textiles. It is widely used as a polymer additive, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) lubricant, aqueous emulsion, and protective coating for floors, tiles, and furniture. Additionally, it is employed in the food and beverage (F&B) industry as a defoamer and packaging adhesive and for the surface treatment of various fruits and vegetables. Other uses of oxidized PE wax include incorporating hydrophobic substances into aqueous systems and coating metals for aesthetic purposes and reducing aging.

Oxidized Polyethylene Wax Market Trends:

The global market growth can be attributed to the extensive utilization of oxidized PE wax in various end use industries. For instance, it finds application in the construction industry as a sealer or to protect concrete. Moreover, it is used in floor finishes to minimize black marks, provide stability, enhance friction, and decrease slipping. It can also be utilized to coat plastic materials and provide them protection. This, in confluence with the growing demand for building services and the increasing number of infrastructure projects worldwide, is acting as a key factor influencing the market positively. Apart from this, with the rising environmental concerns, several companies from different industry verticals are adopting oxidized PE waxes to produce bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). In addition to this, the escalating demand for PHAs is anticipated to strengthen the market growth in the coming years.
