NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is proud to present its premium Alkyl Ketene Dimer (AKD) Wax 1865, a cornerstone for advanced papermaking and coating applications. As a leading neutral sizing agent, AKD Wax 1865 is meticulously engineered to significantly enhance the performance and longevity of paper products, meeting the rigorous demands of modern industries.

Our AKD Wax 1865 stands out with its exceptional specifications, presented as a light yellow flake or granular solid. It boasts a high active ingredient content of no less than 90%, ensuring unparalleled efficiency in its application. With a melting point of at least 50°C and an iodine value of 44 gI2/100g, alongside a very low acid value of ≤5mgKOH/g, this product delivers consistent and superior results. Its reliable shelf life of 180 days (when stored below 25°C) further ensures stability and quality for our partners.

The core functionality of AKD Wax 1865 lies in its unique mechanism as a fiber-reactive neutral sizing agent. Upon application, it chemically reacts with the hydroxyl groups of cellulose fibers, forming a robust hydrophobic layer on the paper's surface. This barrier effectively controls the penetration of liquids, making paper highly resistant to water and preventing common issues like ink bleeding and feathering. This precise sizing capability is crucial for achieving crisp, vibrant print quality and significantly extends the paper's functional life.

A key advantage of AKD Wax 1865 is its commitment to environmental responsibility. Produced using a solvent-free method, it contains no toxic substances, making it an ideal choice for paper grades with stringent hygiene requirements, such as liquid food packaging paper. This aligns perfectly with the growing global emphasis on sustainable and safe manufacturing practices. Furthermore, its neutral sizing characteristic means it operates optimally in a pH range of 7.5-8.5, offering a more environmentally friendly alternative to acidic sizing agents and reducing corrosion on papermaking machinery.

The versatility of AKD Wax 1865 extends across a broad spectrum of paper applications. It is widely utilized in the production of cultural paper, paperboard, newsprint, fruit bag paper, and various types of wrapping paper. Beyond its primary role in imparting water resistance and improving printability, it also contributes to enhancing the paper’s physical properties, including tensile strength, tear resistance, and folding endurance. This makes it an indispensable additive for manufacturing high-performance paper products that maintain their integrity and appearance over time, resisting aging and yellowing.

As a dedicated manufacturer and supplier of specialty chemicals, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. ensures that every batch of AKD Wax 1865 meets the highest quality standards.
