As water-based coatings and surface treatment technologies continue to evolve, the selction of additives increasingly determines coating performance and appearance. Among them, wax emulsions can significantly enhance gloss, hand feel, abrasion resistance, and water resistance—without altering the coating film’s core characteristics.

In particular, emulsions made from natural brazilian carnauba wax are widely used in coatings and inks, thanks to their excellent natural transparency and bright gloss, as well as strong compatibility with water-based systems.

Technical Control Water-based Carnauba Wax Emulsion

Technical Control WAX-101 water-based carnauba wax emulsion is a high-performance additive formulated to deliver natural gloss, resilient protection, and easy handling. It is based on naturally renewable Brazilian carnauba wax and manufactured using advanced emulsification technology to bring superior appearance and performance improvements to a wide range of water-based formulations.

Product Features & Advantages

Enhances Gloss & Improves Polishability

It provides leather with a high-gloss look and a rich, smooth, “oily” feel, while significantly improving the coating’s polishability—helping achieve a uniform, bright, refined finish.

Improves the Water Resistance of the Coating Film

Wax particles form a physical barrier and create a hydrophobic surface, effectively reducing moisture penetration into the leather.

Enhances Scratch Resistance & Abrasion Performance

It adds a smooth, comfortable hand feel and creates an additional “protective layer” that helps reduce friction and anti-sticking—thereby improving resistance to abrasion and scratches.

Eco-Friendly & Stable

Uses renewable natural plant wax as the raw material—non-toxic and pollution-free. Besides, WAX-101 features low emulsifier content, good water dispersibility, and stable emulsion performance: even after long-term storage, it will not separate or form floating wax.

Applications

Leather care products & polishes: For everyday maintenance and brightening of leather shoes/boots, leather bags, leather jackets, etc.

Leather coatings: Use as a topcoat additive or a functional auxiliary to improve multiple surface properties of finished leather.
