Fischer Tropsch Wax is a methylene polymer, which is an alkane synthesized from hydrocarbon based synthetic gas or natural gas. It is composed of 90 95 percent of conventional paraffin hydrocarbons, and the rest are tertiary hydrocarbons and methyl hydrocarbons with branches at the molecular end. Fischer Tropsch (FT) synthesis refers to a production process of synthesizing alkanes from carbon monoxide and hydrogen under high pressure with a unique catalyst. According to the requirements of downstream products (such as fuel, lubricating oil and wax), FT process can synthesize alkanes with different chain lengths and separate alkanes by distillation.
Carbon monoxide and hydrogen are synthesized, fractionated, solvent extracted and bleached under certain pressure, temperature and catalyst conditions. According to the needs, the molecular weight of the final product can be changed, so that the high melting point wax can be obtained from the monomer hydrocarbon similar to liquid paraffin to the high melting point wax similar to polyethylene wax, which has the special properties that other natural waxes or other synthetic waxes do not have. It has better electrical properties than paraffin, higher melting point and hardness, and narrower fraction. According to the needs, the molecular weight of the final product can be changed, so that the high melting point wax can be obtained from the monomer hydrocarbon similar to liquid paraffin to the high melting point wax similar to polyethylene wax, which has the special properties that other natural waxes or other synthetic waxes do not have. It can replace carnauba wax in luster. The internal and external lubricants of various plastics are used to produce Duroc pine wax and develop a wider range of applications.
Fischer Tropsch wax belongs to high molecular inert material, which has the characteristics of low viscosity, high softening point, high melting point and excellent lubrication performance. It is widely used in industrial production.
