Beeswax
Beeswax is a natural substance produced by honeybees. It is a waxy material secreted by worker bees and used to build the walls and cells of honeycombs in the beehive. Beeswax is typically a yellowish-brown or white solid that has a distinctive honey-like scent. It consists primarily of esters, fatty acids, and hydrocarbons.
In addition to its role in constructing the hive, beeswax has various practical applications outside the hive. It is commonly used in the production of candles, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and as a coating for certain food items. Beeswax is valued for its versatility, as it provides a natural and renewable ingredient with properties such as moisture resistance, flexibility, and a slow-burning nature.
