Beeswax is a natural wax from The great India




Beeswax is a natural wax produced in the bee hive of honey bees of the genus Apis.


Beeswax is a natural wax secreted by the bee and used for the construction of the honeycomb

It is mainly esters of fatty acids and various long chain alcohols.

Typically, for a honey bee keeper, 10 pounds of honey yields 1 pound of wax.

 The composition of beeswax


The composition of beeswax


Pure beeswax from Apis mellifera consists of at least 284 different compounds. Not all have been completely identified but over 111 are volatile. At least 48 compounds were found to contribute to the aroma of beeswax. Quantitatively, the major compounds are saturated and unsaturated monoesters, diesters, saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons, free acids and hydroxy polyesters.  


Physical characteristics


Beeswax is a tough wax formed from a mixture of several compounds.

diesters14%

triesters3%

hydroxy monoesters4%

hydroxy polyesters8%

acid esters1%

Beeswax had a wide range of uses. Though in many cases beeswax can be replaced with cheaper, synthetic waxes, its very special characteristics, medicinal benefits, plasticity and aroma ensure its continuing use. The trend for more natural products in cosmetics may also increase its use. Presently, there is a scarcity of beeswax in industrialized countries, at least seasonally.

Beeswax is considered safe for human consumption and has been approved as an ingredient in human food in the USA. It is inert, i.e. it does not interact with the human digestive system at all and passes through the body unaltered. However, substances dissolved or encapsulated in wax are slowly released. This property is exploited in many medicinal preparations.








The uses of wax today

For candle making
For metal castings and modeling

In cosmetics

Food processing
Textiles

Varnishes and polishes

SPRING SEASON GREETINGS-AHF[ALLLURED HINDFRAG]

The sun was warm but the wind was chill.


You know how it is with an April day

When the sun is out and the wind is still,

You're one month on in the middle of May.

But if you so much as dare to speak,

A cloud comes over the sunlit arch,

A wind comes off a frozen peak,

April is the cruelest month, breeding


Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing

Memory and desire, stirring

Dull roots with spring rain.




Its spring its spring

Oh I just can’t wait

To find fruits on the vases

And flowers on my plate



I want to hear the warm sun

And feel the robin singing

Watch the scent of the flowers

And smell the butterflies flying



Its spring its spring

I’m so full of glee

For the people will bloom

And the flowers will be happy



The gray fields shall be covered

With the magic of the meadow

And the brown sky shall be painted

With the blossoms of the rainbow



Its spring its spring

How can I be blue?

For it is the time of spring



And only the spring brings you
-ALLLURED HINDFRAG [ AHF ]
