Product description<br />
Expect the unexpectable! Clariant’s new<br />
high-performance metallocene polymer<br />
technology outperforms traditional<br />
waxes, creating unprecedented manufacturing<br />
possibilities for plastic compounders<br />
and processors, in particular<br />
for PVC processors.<br />
For the first time, properties such as<br />
melting point, viscosity and hardness<br />
can be selectively tuned within broad<br />
ranges and combined in various ways.<br />
The results are countless opportunities<br />
to precisely control property profiles.<br />
With this revolutionary process, Clariant<br />
can engineer optimal solutions to your<br />
specific performance challenges.<br />
Clariant has been manufacturing<br />
<strong>Licocene</strong> ® for two years now and in<br />
order to meet rapidly rising demand,<br />
a large-scale production facility went<br />
on-stream in autumn 2006.<br />
Application<br />
The highly efficient lubricants, <strong>Licocene</strong><br />
PP 6102 and <strong>Licocene</strong> PE 4201<br />
are polypropylene- respectively polyethylene<br />
waxes based on metallocene<br />
technology.<br />

<strong>Licocene</strong> PP 6102 and <strong>Licocene</strong> PE 4201<br />
show a lower viscosity than conventional<br />
PP- and PE- waxes and PP 6102 shows<br />
also a significantly lower drop point<br />
than average polypropylene waxes.<br />
Non-polar polyolefin waxes are used<br />
to control rheology, gelation and flow<br />
behavior of PVC compounds and to<br />
improve surface properties. However<br />
being incompatible with the PVC-polymer<br />
matrix, the excessive use of polyolefin<br />
waxes can lead to undesired build-up<br />
of deposits at various locations during<br />
the extrusion process.<br />
Less is more – this is not only valid in<br />
many areas of our daily life but also in<br />
PVC processing when talking about nonpolar<br />
ingredients. The new metallocene<br />
waxes <strong>Licocene</strong> PP 6102 and <strong>Licocene</strong><br />
PE 4201 show an extraordinary strong<br />
external lubrication effect when compared<br />
to conventional polyolefin waxes.<br />
The addition of these products to various<br />
stabilized PVC compounds leads to a<br />
significant reduction in pressure formation<br />
along the extruder visible by the<br />
reduction in torque and last but not<br />
least in reduction of the energy consumption<br />
of the extruder.<br />

Exactly your chemistry.<br />
Mechanical properties and the degree<br />
of gelation are not negatively affected.<br />
This outstanding performance allows<br />
a reduction in dosage of <strong>Licocene</strong><br />
PP 6102 or <strong>Licocene</strong> PE 4201 in the PVC<br />
profile compounds providing similar<br />
performance to conventional formulations.<br />
Compared to state-of-the-art<br />
polyolefin or hydrocarbon waxes <strong>Licocene</strong><br />
PP 6102 and <strong>Licocene</strong> PE 4201<br />
provide better over-all processing<br />
behavior with a lower addition rate<br />
of approximately 30 %. Give it a try!<br />
