Introduction

Clariant supplies a wide range of waxes for many different

industries and applications, to solve particular problems in

many application sectors like plastics, coating, polish etc.

Clariant is a global player since more than eight decades

in the production of waxes, offering a widely diversified

portfolio of synthetic and semi synthetic waxes.

The waxes of Clariant(previously Hoechst) are widely used

in a huge, diversified field of application: from Adhesives,

Coatings & Inks over Emulsions, Plastics, polish and care

or specialized Applications as Road construction, Wax

sculptures and candles, Powder metallurgy, Cosmetics,

Metal working, Stationary.

Our portfolio comprises Montan wax based products,

polyolefin and polymeric based waxes, as well as amide

waxes and their micronized grades. Our Ceridust

micronized waxes, for instance, are widely establishedon the market as top quality products ideal for use in

printing inks, paints, and many other plastic and coating

applications.

With our long established expertise and focus on

research and development, we are in the position to

develop innovative solutions, orientated towards the

demands of the markets and requirements of customers.

A safety data sheet giving further details is available for

each Clariant product introduced here.

The toxicological and ecological properties were tested on

typical products in the range. The vast majority of products

have very good toxicological and ecotoxicological proper-

ties. The most recent values are given in the safety data

sheets.

TOXICOLOGICAL PROPERTIES

Acute oral toxicityThe acute oral toxicity (LD50) of most products is

> 2,000 mg/kg (rat or mouse).

When handling Ceridust 9202 F, Ceridust 9205 F, Ceridust

9610 F, Ceridust 3920 F, Ceridust 3940 F, Ceridust 9630 F

and Ceridust 3941 F, the usual precautions for products

containing PTFE should be observed. It is essential to

avoid contamination of clothes and tobacco. Dangerous

decomposition products can be formed at temperatures

above 300 C.

Status according to (CLP) EC 1272/2008The products mentioned here do usually not require

a hazard warning label under the CLP regulations on

dangerous substances (EC 1272/2008).

Wax emulsifier 2106 has to be labeled with N, R 50/53.

Wax emulsifier 4106 has to be labeled with Xn, N, R 22,

38, 41, 50.

Notes on handling powders

When handling organic powders, VDI Directive 2263Prevention of dust fires and dust explosions or the

corresponding national regulations should be observed.

Status according to the European chemicals law(REACH)The products mentioned in this data sheet or its monomers

are either preregistered, registered or as polymer exempt

from registration (EC 1907/2006).

Status under food legislationA number of the products mentioned here are permitted

to be used as indirect additives under the food legislation

of the Federal Republic of Germany and other countries,

or comply with the recommendations of government health

departments. These products may thus be used for the

manufacture of consumer commodities which come into

contact with food. Detailed information is available upon

request. Please contact our sales representatives or refer

to our Product Data Sheets or Material Safety Data Sheets.
