perature should not be allowed to fall below 75 - 80 °C. Then cool down to room temperature as quickly as possible while still
stirring thoroughly. Further homogenisation (Ultra-Turrax) produces dispersions which create specially tight-sealing wax films.

General Advantages Depending from the concentration, clear solutions of VOELPKER® 6211 in hot organic solvents crystallize to form very finely divided liquid dispersions, gels or
pastes when the heated solution is cooled under stirring. The received wax preparations have a very slightly solvent retention when the wax dispersion is dried.

form in leather care products, polishes and abrasive pastes (e.g. car polishes), etc. It performs particularly well in co-emulsions of wax and solvents in water. applied to floors and car bodywork or other substrates (other tin surfaces, furniture, parquetry), which requires a good film formation.
WARADUR® E can be used in combination with microcrystalline waxes, paraffin wax, hydrogenated plant oils and others.  Dispersions of VOELPKER® 6211 can be used in injection moulding as a mould release agent for thermosets, e.g. polyurethanes.
 Other applications: paper coating, cosmetics (INCI: Glycol Montanate), metal work, compacting aids in powder metallurgy.  The consistency of the wax dispersion can be adjusted from liquid to pasty by choosing the adequate proportion and concentration of VOELPKER® 6211 and if
necessary other additional waxes.
