Dear Researcher, the difference is only in the molecular weight. Wax has low to medium MW. My Regards

Polymer wax is a synthetic compound of polyethylene oligomer C30-C70. It is obtained by the Fischer-Tropsch method from synthesis gas. Depending on the molar mass, such an oligomer can have a variety of fluidity, melting point and a variety of applications.

It’s because of their molecular weights, as the molecular weight increases, final properties (e.g., mechanical and rheological) increase.

Basic difference is molecular weight, in case of waxes it is lower and polymer it is high. Waxes more used for dispersions, coating or release agents.

Besides lower molecular weight, PP wax is usually atactic - active sites of heterogeneous ZN catalysts producing low molecular weight chains are also less stereospecific ones.

Basically, PP is H(CH2CH2CH2)n - CH2CH2CH3. when n= 0, it is proplylene and it is a gas; n= 2, it is hexane and it is liquid; when n >~7, it become a soft solid and can be used as wax.

If a branch structure is existing in the structure, the melting point of PP will decrease. For example, linear PP when n=7 is in solid state but branch PP with n=7 is still in liquid state.

Basically, PP polymer and PP wax is different mainly in its molecular weight and minorly in its structure.

Difference in their molecular structure ,lower the molecular weight having high mobility as Polymer wax but when polymerised higher nos say n times becomes rigid and high MP .

the differnce is in their mass molucular struture in generale is solution polymer on emulsion process and he has Tg lower.

Polymer wax is soft having low melting point and less n times of polymers whereas polymer is hard having no of repeated polymers .
