Waxrex 715
ExxonMobil specialties , Syria
Product Description
Waxrex 715 is a high quality saturating wax for corrugated paperboard. It is a translucent crystalline material in the solid state and an essentially water white, clear liquid when molten. Waxrex 715 comprises a blend of refined paraffin waxes and a carefully selected additive system. Application of this product to corrugated packaging imparts excellent water resistance, high compressive strength in both wet and dry service, scuff resistance and good score line flexibility. A high blocking point minimizes the tendency for blockage during shipping and storage of finished saturated cartons. Waxrex 715 meets applicable Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements for food-related uses.
ExxonMobil waxes are produced and controlled according to the ExxonMobil Product Quality Management System, EN ISO 9000 or equivalent standard.
Applications
Waxrex 715 is primarily used in the following applications subject to applicable laws and regulations in each jurisdiction*:
- Wax coating for corrugated paper cartons
- Wax coating for paper packaging
* User must check compliance with applicable regulations
