Hywax

March 1st 2022 – Sasol Wax joins the AWAX Group and changes name into Hywax GmbH. Hywax is the leading specialist in innovative wax technology, offering customers all over the world a wide range of wax products of the highest quality and purity.

High-melt Fischer-Tropsch waxes have a unique combination of high melting point, low viscosity and hardness, even at elevated temperatures, which ensure superior performance in applications such as hot melt adhesives (HMA), printing inks and coatings, bitumen modification, polymer processing and polishes and textiles. These products are often used in conjunction with lower melting microcrystalline and paraffin waxes.

  • Hybit®
    The use of Hybit® (former known as Sasol Wax) takes the asphalt application to the next, new level. During the cooling phase Hybit® starts crystalize at 90°C and forms a lattice structure in the bitumen which has a stiffening effect to turn up the durability. Deformation resistance increases significantly, without impairing low-temperature performance.
