Wax modifiers - Improves asphalt roofing performance and reduces production times by 30%

GreenMantra’s Ceranovus wax modifiers are made from recycled plastics and are designed specifically for asphalt roofing applications. The waxes are valuable additions to SBS and modified bitumen roofing systems helping to reduce the mixing time necessary to achieve optimum polymer dispersion, improving heat stability and greatly improving the energy of deformation.

Manufacturing line performance tests demonstrate that Ceranovus waxes can:

Improve the line speed and processing times
In polymer modified applications, reduce mixing times by 30%
Decrease viscosities at process temperature
Reduce bleeding of higher oil formulations through oil scavenging
Stabilize or increase softening point
Decrease penetration without impacting cold temperature performance
Reduce oxidation times and emissions in air blowing and oxidation applications.

While most waxes are created from crude oil, natural gas or coal, Ceranovus waxes are synthesized from 100 percent recycled materials, providing the added benefit of a sustainable, environmentally friendly raw material that enhance the environmental profile of finished roofing products. Ceranovus waxes are available in pastilles, or granules, with packaging available in 45-pound bags, or gaylords and supersacks.

GreenMantra Technologies utilizes a proven patented process to cost-effectively transform plastics into high-value specialty chemicals such as waxes, greases and lubricants.
