Application

Carnauba wax No. 1 yellow, with a melting point of 83℃ and a faint yellow hue, serves a versatile role across various industries due to its unique properties. This hard and brittle wax is derived from the leaf buds and leaves of the Brazilian wax palm, Copernicia cerifera. Recognized as the hardest natural wax available, it finds applications in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. In the food industry, carnauba wax acts as a durable glaze for candies. In pharmaceutical formulations, it is used to create sustained-release solid-dosage forms, providing an efficient delivery system for active ingredients. Its high melting point and ability to impart an appealing luster make it a preferred choice for polishing sugar-coated tablets without the need for rubbing, achieved through a 10% w/v aqueous emulsion mixed with an ethanolamine compound and oleic acid. Additionally, carnauba wax is employed in cosmetic products like lip balms, ensuring smooth application and longevity. Its potential extends to innovative uses, such as producing microparticles and gel beads for advanced drug delivery systems and exploring its efficacy in nanoparticulate sunscreen formulations.
