Product Overview

Sasolwax is a range of high purity synthetic waxes produced via the Fischerโ€“Tropsch process, offering narrow molecular weight distribution, controlled melting points and excellent consistency compared with natural waxes. These properties make Sasolwax products highly effective as processing aids, lubricants and surface modifiers in a wide range of industrial formulations.

In coatings and adhesives, Sasolwax improves slip, scratch resistance, blocking resistance and surface finish. In plastics and thermoplastics, it acts as an internal and external lubricant, supporting improved flow, mould release and processing stability. In rubber compounds, Sasolwax contributes to lubrication, dispersion and surface quality while maintaining compound integrity.

The consistency, low oil content and defined melting behaviour of Sasolwax enable formulators to achieve predictable performance and repeatability in demanding production environments.
