https://www.khonorwax.com/mechanism-of-microcrystalline-wax-in-lubricating-system.html Micro crystalline wax is a kind of refined synthetic wax with similar microcrystalline properties, which has the characteristics of good luster and light color. The microcrystalline wax melting point is high melting point. It is as white as jade, and can bring extremely beneficial impact on the production of light - colored products. In addition to normal paraffins and isomeric paraffins, the wax also contains many saturated hydrocarbons with long branched chains and rings. As a result, the melting point, molecular weight and viscosity of white microcrystalline wax are higher than that of petroleum wax, and its brittleness is lower and it is not easy to break.
