The Montan wax is produced from lignite and peat and offers a wide extend of great properties such as hardness, delicate, high softening point, and electrical conductivity. The Montan wax is utilized in numerous applications such as cement glues & sealants, coatings, carbon paper, phonograph records, plastic preparation, and others. The Montan wax offers the best coating and lubricants working in different end-use sections. The montan wax industry is majorly developing with the high demand from the nourishment industry, majorly from new natural product portions, as montan wax is utilized as consumable coatings to preserve quality and long-lasting freshness.

Global Montan Wax Market Definition

Montan wax also called lignite wax or OP wax is a hard wax derived using solvent extraction of certain types of lignite or brown coal. It contains a long chain of fatty acids and alcohol. Unrefined Montan wax contains asphalt and resins, which may be removed by refining. Its color varies from dark brown to light yellow in crude form, or white when refined. Its melting range is 82 to 95 °C.

Due to its excellent properties, Montan wax is used in various high-performance applications. It is extremely useful for the plastic industry owing to its fine lubrication property. Montan wax improves the flowability of polymers when used as an internal lubricant. The molecular structure of montan wax has properties like low volatility and high thermal stability. The use of montan wax enhances the mechanical properties of polymers. It finds extensive use in the chemical industry, food industry, wax polish industry, carbon paper industry, electrical industry, and machinery industry among others.

Global Montan Wax Market Overview

The increasing usage in the food industry is an important driver for the Global Montan Wax Market. It helps in preserving the freshness of the fruits leading to higher demand from fruit vendors. It is also used as a lubricant in the manufacturing of plastic food containers. Another major factor propelling the growth in the Global Montan Wax Market is the property of Montan wax-like good thermal stability and low volatility due to which it is used in the electronics and electrical sector. Other important drivers are the excellent physiochemical properties and cost-effectiveness of Montan wax and its growing usage in the coating agents segment.

Montan wax extracted from brown coal is expected to provide new profitable opportunities leading to the rapid growth of the Montan Wax Market. It offers advantages such as hardness and a relatively low melting point. Also, it can transform from a solid to a low-viscosity liquid within a very narrow temperature range. Furthermore, its enhanced physicochemical properties and cheap cost availability give it preference over other waxes such as carnauba wax, and beeswax.

This will provide opportunities for the growth of the Montan Wax Market. Other opportunities lie in the efficient, environmentally friendly technology for extracting Montan waxes and the growing popularity of near-natural waxes for use in the cosmetic, paper, and paint industries. Thus, there are ample growth opportunities for the market. However, there are some restraints like the government restrictions on lignite mining and the availability of alternatives. These may adversely impact the growth of the Global Montan Wax Market.
