WAX FORMULATIONS FOR LIGNOCELLULOSIC PRODUCTS, METHODS OF THEIR MANUFACTURE AND PRODUCTS FORMED THEREFROM

摘要

The present invention is directed to a wax formulation for use in lignocellulosic products, which impart improved properties such as dimensional stability when the products are exposed to moisture. The wax formulations include a wax and a surface tension/interfacial tension reducing agent comprising one or more of a fluorinated compound having two to six carbon atoms, an alkylphenol alkoxylate or an ethoxylated acetylenic diol.
