Basic Info

Candelilla Wax, also known as wax resin or palm wax, is a natural wax extracted from the leaf wax of the Carnauba tree.

Candelilla Wax is a yellow brown to brown solid with high hardness and luster. The relative density is about 0.983, the melting point is 67-68 ℃, the iodine value is 37, and the refractive index is 1.4555. Candelilla Wax is soluble in chloroform, hot petroleum ether, toluene, and alkali, slightly soluble in ethanol, and insoluble in water.

Candelilla Wax has multiple uses. Secondly, Candelilla Wax is often used as a lubricant, such as in the production of rubber or plastic products.

The method of making Candelilla Wax is to remove the leaves of the small candle tree and dry them, then grind and filter the dried leaves, and finally extract Candelilla Wax.

Candelilla Wax is second only to Brazilian palm wax in terms of hardness, with a melting temperature between 67 and 71. Like Brazilian palm wax, Candelilla Wax is used to increase the hardness of wax when mixed with other ingredients, but its hardening effect is not as good as Brazilian palm wax.
