Description
Rice bran wax (CAS 8016-60-2 ) is a natural vegetable wax extracted from rice bran oil during refining. It functions as a hardening agent, texture modifier, and surface coating material across food, cosmetic, and industrial applications. In confectionery and fresh produce, it forms a protective glaze that extends shelf life and improves visual appeal. Cosmetic formulators use it to harden lip balms, stick deodorants, and pressed powders. Its high melting point delivers structural stability at elevated temperatures. In printing inks and coatings, it improves slip, scratch resistance, and rub-off performance on packaging surfaces. Adhesive and sealant manufacturers incorporate it as a rheology modifier to control viscosity. This helps prevent cold flow in hot-melt formulations and ensures consistent performance in industrial settings. Rice bran wax is supplied as hard, brittle flakes or pellets. Food-grade material meeting FCC specifications is standard for edible coating and confectionery applications for global distribution. Cosmetic-grade material is available for personal care use, while technical grade is offered for industrial coatings. These grades ensure the material meets specific requirements for inks and adhesive applications. Whether used for food or industrial purposes, this wax provides excellent barrier properties. It remains a versatile choice for manufacturers seeking natural alternatives to synthetic or petroleum-based waxes. Contact us for supply of Rice bran wax Request Quote
