OPE wax used for fibre lubricant
In the production of synthetic fibres (such as polyester, nylon, and polypropylene) and natural fibres, fibre lubricants (or ‘oils’) are indispensable additives. Oxidized polyethylene wax primarily serves the following functions:
Friction reduction and wear resistance: During high-speed spinning, stretching, texturing, and weaving processes, fibres undergo intense friction against metal guides and ceramic friction plates. Oxidized polyethylene wax forms a robust, smooth lubricating film on the fibre surface, effectively lowering the coefficient of friction.
Effect: Prevents fibre pilling and breakage, reduces powder shedding, and enhances production efficiency and yield.
Synthetic fibres readily accumulate static electricity during processing due to friction, leading to issues such as fibre entanglement, poor dispersion, and dust attraction.
The polar functional groups of oxidized polyethylene wax exhibit hygroscopic properties, facilitating charge dissipation and thereby providing effective antistatic performance.
