  • Chemical and Technical Assessment 65Th JECFA
    Chemical and Technical Assessment 65th JECFA BEESWAX Chemical and Technical Assessment (CTA) First draft prepared by Paul M. Kuznesof, Ph.D.∗ Reviewed by D. Brian Whitehouse, Ph.D. 1 Summary Beeswax (INS No. 901) consists primarily of a mixture of esters of fatty acids and fatty alcohols, paraffinic hydrocarbons, and free fatty acids; minor amounts of free fatty alcohols are also present. Two types of beeswax are marketed: yellow beeswax (C.A.S No. 8006-40-4) and white beeswax (C.A.S. No. 8012-89-3). Yellow beeswax is a yellow or light-brown solid that is somewhat brittle when cold and presents a characteristic odour of honey. White beeswax is a white or yellowish white solid (thin layers are translucent) having a characteristic, but faint, odour of honey. Beeswax is obtained from the honeycombs of bees (Apis mellifera L., Fam. Apidae) after removal of the honey. The combs are melted with hot water, steam, or solar heat. After removing the insoluble impurities, the liquid wax is cast into cakes for further purification to obtain food-grade yellow beeswax. Bleaching the latter with e.g. hydrogen peroxide, sulfuric acid or sunlight, yields white beeswax. Beeswax consists primarily of five main groups of components, namely: 1. Free fatty acids (typically 12-14%), most of which are saturated (ca. 85%) and have a chain length of C24-C32. 2. Free primary fatty alcohols (ca. 1%) with a chain length of C28-C35. 3. Linear wax monoesters and hydroxymonoesters (35-45%) with chain lengths generally of C40- C48. The esters are derived almost exclusively from palmitic acid, 15-hydroxypalmitic acid, and oleic acid.

Received: 4 November 2013; in revised form: 11 March 2014 / Accepted: 14 March 2014 / Published: 24 March 2014 Abstract: Lacquer wax is an important fatty resource obtained from the mesocarp of the berries of Toxicodendron vernicifluum. In order to expand the applications of lacquer wax, we hydrolyzed it after establishing the best conditions for the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis using a Box-Behnken design. Then we synthesized a quarternary ammonium gemini surfactant by a three-step reaction. The surface properties of an aqueous solution of the final product were investigated. The optimum conditions were 9% catalyst, 100 °C of reaction temperature and 14 h of reaction time, while the maximum free fatty acids (FFA)% was 99.67%. From the gas chromatography, the main fatty acids of the lacquer wax were palmitic, oleic and octadecanoic acid. The lacquer wax gemini surfactant was synthesized, and its structure was confirmed by IR and NMR.

Enhances the wood grain and increases the resistance of wood surfaces against abrasion, water and dirt penetration. Also suitable for natural stone and unglazed tiles. Easy to clean, just use a mild soap and water. Worn patches can be restored with additional coats. Do not use in frequently wet areas. Technical Properties : Ideal for furniture, architectural woodwork and floors with smooth surfaces. Creates an elastic, breathable, anti-static protective coating. Water-resistent. Mode of Application : Surfaces must be smooth, free of dust and clean. Apply thin coat by cotton cloth or wax brush, ideally parallel with the wood grain. Avoid build-ups in cavities or cracks. In such cases remove excess material, if already hardened with # 115 Xtra Mild Citrus Thinner. Let dry for 48 hours or longer ( ideally 4 - 7 days ), then buff to a sheen with a wax buffer or a buffing machine applying strong pressure. We recommend to buff again on the following day. Do not use floor between waxing and buffing. Use moderately and do not clean wet during the first 3 weeks.

  • Epolene for Industrial Applications
    50 Year Westlake Anniversary Epolene Chemical Polymers Epolene® Polymers Emulsifiable Waxes • Epolene E-10 An oxidized homopolymer developed for water-emulsion floor polishes, Epolene® E-10 imparts excellent slip resistance, outstanding toughness, and good durability to polish films. These properties are often apparent at low wax concentrations; however, they are best observed where Epolene E-10 wax represents 20% or more of the total solids in the polish. Emulsions of Epolene E-10 wax may be used as finishing agents for cotton and synthetic fabrics, and as textile softeners in conjunction with wash-and-wear finishing waxes. Emulsions prepared with Epolene E-10 may be used as lubricants in clay coatings for paper to reduce dusting during calendering. • Epolene E-14 This is an oxidized homopolymer with lower density and softening point than Epolene E-10 wax. These properties contribute greatly to its versatility and ease of emulsification by the wax-to-water or pressure emulsification methods. Epolene E-14 in powdered from (Epolene E-14P) is also useful as a lubricant in processing rigid and flexible polyvinyl chloride and as a processing aid for preparing color concentrates. Epolene E-14 and E-14P are effective internal lubricants for PVC pipe extrusion, including pipe meeting NSF International requirements for potable water. • Epolene E-20 Epolene E-20 wax is a low-molecular-weight, medium-density, oxidized polyethylene wax with exceptional hardness and low color. This product has a low softening point and low viscosity that give it the desirable emulsification properties of a low-density wax. Epolene E-20 wax is an excellent performer in high-speed, buffable floor polish, textile lubricant/softener, and fruit coating applications.
