Sunflower Wax

CAS: 1286686-34-7 Sunflower Wax is a vegetable wax obtained from the winterization of sunflower oil. This wax consists of long chain, saturated esters, which correlate to hardness, crystalline structure, and a high melting point. Sunflower Wax is harder than beeswax, therefore less sunflower wax is needed to replace beeswax in a formulation. It functions as a strong gellant and consistency modifier in sticks and emulsions.
