Beeswax

Description:

Beeswax, with the CAS number 8012-89-3, is a natural wax produced by honeybees, primarily composed of long-chain fatty acids and long-chain alcohols. It appears as a yellow to brown solid and has a characteristic sweet, honey-like aroma. The chemical composition of beeswax includes esters of fatty acids and long-chain alcohols, along with hydrocarbons, free fatty acids, and other minor components. It has a melting point typically ranging from 62 to 65 degrees Celsius, making it solid at room temperature but pliable when warmed. Beeswax is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and chloroform. It exhibits excellent emulsifying properties, making it useful in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food products. Additionally, beeswax has natural antibacterial properties, which contribute to its use in various applications, including as a protective coating and in candle making. Its biodegradability and non-toxic nature further enhance its appeal in sustainable and eco-friendly products.
