Manufacturer's description
Waxrex 715 is a high-quality saturating wax for corrugated paperboard: a translucent crystalline material in the solid state and an essentially water-white, clear liquid when molten. It comprises a blend of refined paraffin waxes and a carefully selected additive system. Applied to corrugated packaging, it imparts excellent water resistance, high compressive strength in both wet and dry service, scuff resistance and good score-line flexibility, while a high blocking point minimises the tendency for blockage during shipping and storage of finished saturated cartons. Waxrex 715 meets applicable FDA requirements for food-related uses (FDA 21 CFR 176.170, 176.180 and 175.105), and is produced and controlled according to the ExxonMobil Product Quality Management System, EN ISO 9000 or equivalent standard. Waxrex 715 is primarily used, subject to applicable laws and regulations in each jurisdiction, as a wax coating for corrugated paper cartons and for paper packaging. It is a Low Melt grade with typical properties including a congealing point of 52.8-57.2°C, ASTM Saybolt colour of at least 15 (ASTM D6045), wax odour up to 1 (ASTM D1833), and a flash point (Cleveland Open Cup, ASTM D92) of at least 204°C.
