Additional information
The meting point for slack waxes ranges from 43°C to 63°C. A melting point range of 48°C to 60oC was reported by CONCAWE (2010a). Additionally, melting point values ranging from 43°C to 63°C (CONCAWE, 1999a) and 57 to 63°C (Warth, 1956) have also been reported.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
