Beeswax - Introduction
BEESWAX is a natural substance secreted by bees, the main component of which is alkane compounds and wax esters secreted by Bee emollient glands. It has the following properties:
1. Physical properties: BEESWAX is a white or yellowish white solid, with luster and brittleness, melting point between 62-67 degrees Celsius, and turns into a yellow liquid after melting.
2. Chemical properties: BEESWAX is insoluble in water, but can be dissolved in organic solvents such as alcohol and chloroform. It is a relatively stable compound that is not easily decomposed by light, oxygen and thermal decomposition.
BEESWAX has many uses, including but not limited to the following:
1. Food industry: BEESWAX is commonly used as a coating agent for food packaging, confectionery, and an emulsifier for chocolate and vegetable oil.
2. Cosmetic industry: BEESWAX is widely used in cosmetics, such as lipstick, skin cream, wax perfume, etc., it has the function of moisturizing, lubricating and protecting the skin.
There are two main methods for making BEESWAX:
1. Traditional Method: through the extraction and separation of BEESWAX room, and then through smelting, filtration and other steps to get BEESWAX.
2. Modern method: the use of high pressure distillation, solvent extraction technology, from BEESWAX room extraction of pure BEESWAX.
The following safety precautions need to be taken when using and handling BEESWAX:
1. BEESWAX is a relatively safe substance, but may cause allergic reactions in people with allergies, so skin allergy testing should be performed before using cosmetics or other products containing BEESWAX.
2. It is necessary to pay attention to the storage temperature and avoid high temperature and sunlight exposure to prevent the wax from melting and deterioration.
3. When handling BEESWAX, it is recommended to wear gloves and eye protection equipment to avoid direct contact with skin and eyes to prevent irritation.
