AKD Wax

AKD Wax – High-Performance Internal Sizing for Paper

AKD Wax (Alkyl Ketene Dimer Wax) is a key internal sizing agent widely used in neutral and alkaline papermaking. It reacts with cellulose fibers to form a hydrophobic layer, providing excellent water resistance, surface strength, and dimensional stability to paper and paperboard.

Our AKD Wax is produced with high purity and consistent particle size, ensuring stable emulsification, efficient retention, and reliable performance across various pulp types. It is suitable for both batch and continuous emulsification systems, enabling high-quality sizing and improved paper properties.

Key Features & Advantages:

• Excellent internal sizing performance for water-resistant paper

• High purity and uniform particle size for consistent results

• Enhances paper surface strength, printability, and dimensional stability

• Compatible with neutral and alkaline papermaking systems

• Easy emulsification and stable storage

Applications:

• Printing and writing papers

• Packaging paper and paperboard

• Specialty papers requiring enhanced water resistance

• Food contact papers and liquid packaging boards
