benjamingum - Introduction
BENZOIN is a resin that has been used for various purposes since ancient times. The following is a description of the nature, use, preparation and safety information of BENZOIN:
Nature:
1. Appearance: BENZOIN is a yellow to reddish brown solid, sometimes it can be transparent.
2. Odor: It has a unique fragrance and is widely used in the fragrance and perfume industry.
3. Density: the density of BENZOIN is about 1.05-1.10g/cm³.
4. Melting Point: within the melting point range, BENZOIN will become viscous.
Use:
1. Spices: BENZOIN can be used as a natural spice, used to make all kinds of perfume, aromatherapy and aromatherapy products.
2. Medicine: BENZOIN is used in traditional medicine to treat symptoms such as cough, bronchitis and indigestion.

Preparation Method:
1. Cutting from the mastic tree: Cut a small opening on the bark of the mastic tree, let the resin liquid flow out, and let it dry to form BENZOIN.
2. Distillation method: Heat the bark and resin of the mastic gum to a temperature higher than the boiling point of the mastic gum, boil it and distill it, and finally obtain BENZOIN.
Safety Information:
1. The resin of the mastic tree may have an allergic reaction to some people, so a skin sensitivity test should be performed before use.
2. The resin of mastic tree is considered to be a very safe substance, there is no obvious toxicity or carcinogenic risk.
3. When burning incense, pay attention to fire prevention measures to avoid burning fire.
4. In the use of BENZOIN, should follow the appropriate safe operation and storage guidelines, to prevent ingestion, contact with eyes or inhalation.
