Definition and characteristics of micro crystalline wax:
Micro crystalline wax is a kind of solid substance with micro crystalline structure, which is composed of various paraffin compounds. The following are the main characteristics of it:
Low melting point: it has a relatively low melting point, usually between 50℃ and 100℃, which makes it easy to be heated and processed.
High crystallinity: The crystallinity of it is relatively high, which makes it has good thermal stability and deformation resistance. Moderate softening temperature: the softening temperature of it wax is between 50℃ and 80℃, so that it will not be soft at room temperature, but it can be quickly softened when heated.
Chemical resistance: it has good corrosion resistance to acids, alkalis and some organic solvents, so it is widely used in some chemical and pharmaceutical fields.
The application of micro crystalline wax in cosmetics is very extensive. It can be used as the basic raw material of skin care products, with good lubricity and moisturizing effect, can effectively lock the water of the skin to prevent water loss, and will not cause skin sensitivity. It can also be used in the processing of cosmetics such as lipstick mascara and paste eyeshadow, so that it has good ductility and stability.
In the pharmaceutical field, it is often used as coating materials for medicines such as tablets, poultices and suppositories. It has good solubility and stability, which can protect the drug from moisture and light, and extend the shelf life of the drug. At the same time, the micro crystalline wax has a good tolerance to stomach acid, and can effectively protect the drug from loss in the stomach acid environment.
In the field of industrial lubrication, micro crystalline wax has good lubricating properties and heat resistance, and is often used as an additive for industrial lubricants. It can be used for lubrication of metal surfaces, lubrication of bearings, lubrication of plastic molds, etc. It can also be used for the preparation of anti-rust agents to effectively protect metal products from corrosion.
