Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about FT Waxes in printing inks applications

FT waxes have higher crystallinity, narrower molecular weight distribution, and higher melting points than PE waxes, delivering superior hardness, thermal stability, and wear resistance.

Yes, K TINT-MJ22 is specifically engineered for UV/energy-curable inks, maintaining UV cure compatibility and providing outstanding scratch and blocking resistance.

During curing, FT wax particles migrate to the surface, controlling texture to produce a soft, uniform matte or silky finish while reducing gloss mottle and streaking.

Typical usage levels are 0.5–4%, depending on ink type, desired surface finish, and required abrasion resistance for the specific application.

Yes, FT waxes are well-suited for hot-melt ink systems due to their high melting points and excellent thermal stability under processing conditions.
