The properties of Carnauba wax
Carnauba wax is a light brown to grayish yellow powder, thin sheet, or irregularly shaped wax block with a hard and brittle texture. Has a mild and distinctive odor, but is almost tasteless. The saponification value is 78-95, the iodine value is 5-14, and Carnauba wax does not undergo rancidity. Dissolved in warm chloroform and warm toluene, slightly soluble in boiling ethanol (95%), almost insoluble in water.
Carnauba wax is soluble in hot xylene, soluble in hot ethyl acetate, and almost insoluble in water or ethanol.

The characteristics of Carnauba wax
Carnauba wax is more durable in emitting and maintaining fragrance than other types of wax. Other advantages include high-quality durability and a higher melting point.
