Beeswax
 Beeswax is a natural wax produced by honeybees of the genus Apis. It is secreted by worker bees from specialized glands and used to build honeycomb cells. Beeswax is a complex mixture of esters, fatty acids, and hydrocarbons, characterized by a pale yellow to brown color, a pleasant honey-like aroma, and a firm yet pliable texture. It has excellent emulsifying, binding, and protective properties, making it widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food, and industrial applications. Beeswax is prized for its natural origin, biodegradability, and skin-friendly characteristics.
Hydrocarbon Resins C5 And C9 Petroleum Resins
Hydrocarbon Resins C5 And C9 Petroleum Resins are synthetic petroleum-derived resins produced through the polymerization of C5 (pentene) and C9 (nonene) fraction monomers. These resins appear as pale yellow to amber solid materials, usually in pellet or flake form, characterized by tackifying and adhesive properties. C5 resins are derived from aliphatic hydrocarbons, while C9 resins originate from aromatic hydrocarbons. Often blended, these resins provide a balance of hardness, tackiness, and compatibility with various polymers. Widely used as tackifiers, binders, and modifiers, C5 & C9 hydrocarbon resins enhance performance in adhesives, coatings, rubber compounding, and more.
