Abstract
An improved dewaxing aid for solvent dewaxing process comprising a mixture of (A) an .alpha.-olefin polymer having an average molecular weight of from about 10,000 to 1,000,000 and a wide molecular weight distribution exceeding the range of from about 10,000 to 1,000,000 but falling within the range of from about 2,000 to 3,000,000 wherein the .alpha.-olefin polymer is a homopolymer made up of a C.sub.10 to C.sub.25 alpha-olefin monomer or is a copolymer made up of a monomer mixture comprising more than 50 wt. % of at least 2 C.sub.10 to C.sub.25 alpha-olefin monomers and a melt index greater than 1.8 g/10 min. and (B) an olefin vinyl acetate copolymer having a vinyl acetate content of from about 15 to 40 wt. % and an average molecular weight of from about 50,000 to 1,000,000 and a melt index greater than 2 g/10 min. The .alpha.-olefin polymer having a high molecular weight and wide molecular weight distribution, when combined with the olefin-vinyl acetate copolymer, synergistically improves the efficiency of wax separation.
