Oxidized Polyethylene Wax Market Dynamics

Driver: Increasing demand in end-use applications

Polyethylene wax and oxidized polyethylene wax are both utilized in the realm of paints and coatings. The advantage of oxidized PE wax over its precursor lies in its ability to emulsify easily in water when combined with an emulsifying agent. Additionally, oxidized waxes possess a cationic nature and are chemically more stable. In coating applications, oxidized PE wax is used in temporary protective coatings, wood finishes, textiles, glass, leather, fruits, paper, and chlorinated rubber coatings. It is employed in epoxy primers, vinyl primers, anti-fouling paints, and road-making paints, particularly in the realm of paints. Depending on the desired properties of the paint or coating, various emulsifiers can be utilized to disperse the oxidized PE wax within it. Xylene emulsifier, for instance, is employed in producing epoxy primers, vinyl primers, road-making paints, anti-fouling paints, and industrial maintenance coatings. This product aids in incorporating hydrophobic substances into aqueous systems, thus enhancing the appearance, gloss, and rub resistance of aqueous-based graphic ink printing systems when used with an emulsifier in the printing industry. Similarly, in the metal industry, an oxidized PE wax coating is applied to enhance aesthetics and reduce aging. China, the largest market for paints and coatings, is expected to continue growing regardless of economic conditions. The Asia Pacific region is the leading manufacturer and consumer of paints and coatings, and this trend is likely to continue due to increasing investments in the sector. Furthermore, automobile manufacturers are also relocating their operations to this region, which is anticipated to positively impact product consumption.

Restraint: Threat of substitutes

The oxidized polyethylene wax is facing a market restraint, as it can be substituted by synthetic wax in certain applications. Fischer Tropsch wax, a synthetic wax, is commonly used in industries like inks, paints, varnishes & coatings, textiles, and leathers due to its ability to provide a strong coating. This synthetic wax is produced from natural gas and has a linear structure derived from saturated straight-chain hydrocarbons. Fischer Tropsch wax maintains low viscosity and excellent hardness even at high temperatures. With these desirable properties, synthetic wax is expected to gain more market share in various applications. In terms of cost, oxidized polyethylene wax is more economical than its competitors, which is expected to maintain its dominance in demand across different application segments. Some manufacturers of oxidized polyethylene wax, such as DEUREX, Nanjing Tianshi, and Clariant, also offer Fischer Tropsch wax in their product portfolio. Leading manufacturers of Fischer Tropsch wax include Sasol, Shell, and Nippon Seiro Co., Ltd.
