China Beeswax Cheap Beeswax Supplier with High Quality and Purity
China beeswax origin:
Beeswax is the building material of the Honey Bee. It is produced from four pairs of glands situated under the abdomen of the worker bee. The beeswax is produced by the bees when they are gathering nectar and is used to build the honey comb in which the nectar is stored. Pure beeswax is white in colour but most people will be more familiar with yellow to orange coloured beeswax. The colour is due to natural staining from pollen and propolis gathered when the bees are producing the beeswax. The beeswax colour will vary depending on the type of nectar source that the bees are gathering.
China Beeswax Physical properties
The melting point of beeswax is not a fixed value. The temperature range is 62℃-67℃. When the temperature is 32℃-35℃, beeswax has plasticity. When beeswax is extruded, its molecular structure is destroyed and its plasticity is strong. At 40°C, although the beeswax looks solid, it has actually begun to melt. When heated to above 85°C, the beeswax will fade. Beeswax is insoluble in water, miscible with lipids, oils and other waxes, soluble in a variety of organic solvents such as ether and chloroform, and soluble in alcohol after heating. In addition, natural beeswax has strong plasticity, good lubricity, and has the advantages of insulation, moisture resistance, and avoiding surface corrosion. These excellent properties provide the possibility of application in various fields.
