Kahlwax 6279L – Myrica Fruit Wax

  • Company:

    KahlWax

  • INCI Name:

    Myrica Cerifera (Bayberry) Fruit Wax

Kahlwax 6279L is a Myrica wax derived from berry fruit peels of the Myrica Pubescens tree native in Latin America. The wax is very unique as it has no double bounds and is rather a naturally “hydrogenated” oil but solid. Due to its chemical structure (iodine value < 2) it is very stable against oxidation. Very untypical is the low melting point while having an exceptional hardness. This combination leads to an outstanding spreadability. Kahlwax 6279L reduces stickiness of O/W emulsions and oleogels, stabilizes stick preparations, and has excellent properties for hair styling products. In combination with fatty alcohols it can also be used in hair conditioners.
