Micro Crystalline Wax

Product Description

We are engaged in this industry as a profound manufacturer and supplier of Micro Crystalline Wax also called as Micro Wax. In processing these waxes as per the quality standards of the industry, we use high end quality natural components in precise composition. We have wide range of these crystalline waxes which are accomplished with properties like greater affinity for oil, longer shelf life and high effectiveness. Micro Crystalline Wax offered by us is widely used in rubber industry, tire industry, packaging, foot wears, disposables, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

Micro Crystalline Wax like all the other waxes is made by refining the crude oil. It is more pliable and stickier as its molecular structure is more circular and branched which makes it an unrivalled adhesive. It is tougher, more flexible and has higher melting points and tensile strength. Its viscosity is higher in molten form and has oil retaining property. Although it is strong not does not have perennial hold. As it is waterproof so it fills the gaps excellently. It rapidly adheres and works on both porous and non-porous materials, and does not wrinkle fine paper. Micro Crystalline Wax binds oils and solvents and hence protects the sweating of components.

This is used for several purposes mentioned below:

• Adhesive
• Conservatory Purposes
• Making of candles, greases, industrial jellies and also acts as viscosity enhancer for lubricants and lubricating oils.
• Cosmetics & (Skin Care items like gels, creams, white petroleum jelly, and etc.)
• Industrial Explosives and Explosives
• Food stuffs
• Inks & Paints
• Filling Compounds & Petroleum Jelly
• Edible & Pharmaceutical products ointments, gums, hair creams, balms, pastes.
• Laminating, Packing & Compounding foils, carton, Kraft, tetra packs, Paper cups, Pouches, and etc.
• Plastics & PVC Products
• Rubbers & Tyres
• Foundry and Sculpting works

Wide-Ranging Applications

Micro Crystalline Wax plays a significant role across cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, candle making, food packaging, adhesives, and polishes, serving either as a base material or functional additive. Its stable composition and neutral acidity allow for safe incorporation into skincare formulations, ointments, chewing gum, and surface treatments, ensuring tailored performance for diverse industries.


Quality Assurance and Storage

This wax is characterized by minimal impurities, neutral acidity, and long-term stability. It should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat and flame for maximum efficacy and shelf life. Each batch is supplied in typically 25 kg bags or drums, with industrial, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic grades available to suit every requirement.
