Abstract

A polymer-bound writing substance for writing, drawing and/or painting tools, particularly for pencils or colored pencils, including at least one polymer bonding agent, at least one wax, and at least one filler material, wherein the writing substance is further provided with 0.1 to 5 wt % of palm kernel oil, and/or coconut butter, and/or coconut oil, and/or oleic acid.

Claims (30)

1. A polymer-bound writing substance for writing, drawing or painting tools, comprising; at least one polymeric binder; at least one wax; at least one filler material; and palm kernel oil and/or coconut butter, and/or coconut oil, wherein the writing substance comprises

15 to 25 wt. % polymeric binder

4 to 20 wt. % wax

0.5 to 2.5 wt. % palm kernel oil, and/or coconut butter, and/or coconut oil

remainder filler material(s).

2. The polymer-bound writing substance according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one polymeric binder is formed of at least one polymer of the group consisting of polystyrene (PS), styrene acrylonitrile (SAN), styrene-butadiene (SB), polyolefins (PO) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS).

3. The polymer-bound writing substance according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one wax is formed of at least one wax of the group consisting of fatty acids, stearates, montan waxes, amide waxes and paraffins.

4. The polymer-bound writing substance according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one wax is formed of calcium stearate or comprises calcium stearate.

5. The polymer-bound writing substance according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one filler material comprises at least one filler material from the group consisting of graphite, soot, hexagonal boron nitride, layered silicates, chalk, baryte, coloured pigments and uncoloured pigments.

6. The polymer-bound writing substance according to claim 1 , wherein the writing substance is a pencil writing substance and comprises

15 to 25 wt. % polymeric binder

4 to 12 wt. % wax

0.5 to 2 wt. % palm kernel oil, and/or coconut butter, and/or coconut oil

remainder graphite or graphite and soot.

7. The polymer-bound writing substance according to claim 6 , wherein the writing substance is a pencil writing substance and comprises

15 to 25 wt. % polystyrene

4 to 12 wt. % calcium stearate

0.5 to 2 wt. % palm kernel oil, and/or coconut butter, and/or coconut oil

remainder graphite or graphite and soot.

8. The polymer-bound writing substance according to claim 1 , wherein the writing substance is a coloured pencil writing substance and comprises

15 to 25 wt. % polymeric binder

4 to 12 wt. % wax

0.5 to 2 wt. % palm kernel oil, and/or coconut butter, and/or coconut oil

remainder layered silicate(s) and/or hexagonal boron nitride as well as at least one coloured pigment and/or an uncoloured pigment.

9. The polymer-bound writing substance according to claim 8 , wherein the writing substance is a coloured pencil writing substance and comprises

15 to 25 wt. % polystyrene

4 to 12 wt. % montan wax

0.5 to 2 wt. % palm kernel oil, and/or coconut butter, and/or coconut oil

remainder talc and/or hexagonal boron nitride as well as at least one coloured pigment and/or an uncoloured pigment.

10. A method for producing a polymer-bound writing substance according to claim 1 , comprising the steps of forming the writing substance by extrusion.
