Abstract
The methods of manufacturing a curable wax, such as an acrylate of a hydroxyl-terminated polyethylene wax having the structure CH—(CH)—CHOH, where n=22-24, are disclosed. The methods may include reacting a wax having a transformable functional group and a curable compound in the presence of an organic solvent to form an acrylate. The methods may further include removing excess curable compound using hot water having a temperature of more than 85° C., and solidifying the acrylate. The methods may thereby provide safe and cost effective methods for curable wax production at large scale.
