Genuine Rice Bran Wax

Obtained through the cold press de-waxing of rice oil and which yields a yellow, hard natural wax with a high melt point, which is often compared to Carnauba Wax. Our SP-9002 is good for providing structure and stick integrity. As well as providing hardness in a formulation.

CAS #: 8016-60-2
EINECS #: 232-409-7

Details

While often compared to Carnauba Wax, due to it's high melting point, there are functional differences between the two natural waxes. Rice Bran Wax is a superior binder of oils and has been useful in combining with and stabilizing oils in both anhydrous and emulsion systems. It is seen as particularly effective in reducing syneresis in lipstick and other oil-based systems.

Benefits include:

  • Thickener
  • Matting effect
  • Binding Agent
  • Plasticizer
