Mixing liquid wax with water is generally not effective, as wax is hydrophobic and does not dissolve in water. However, you can create an emulsion by heating the wax to a liquid state and then vigorously mixing it with water, often adding an emulsifier to help stabilize the mixture. It's essential to keep the mixture continuously agitated to prevent separation. Be cautious, as combining hot wax with water can create splattering or steam.
Butter is considered as an emulsion.
You can make free wax by using natural ingredients like sugar, lemon, and water to create a DIY sugar wax. Alternatively, you can repurpose already-used candles or wax from old projects to create new wax items. This can help reduce waste and save money on purchasing new wax.
Acrylic is chemical based resin whereas plastic emulsion is water based.
A drop test can be used to detect the presence of an emulsion. Add a drop of the emulsion to water. If it disperses or forms a milky appearance, it indicates the presence of an emulsion.
carnuba wax
Process for beewax emulsion
The correct spelling is "carnauba wax." Carnauba wax is a natural wax derived from the leaves of the carnauba palm tree. It is used in various applications, including automotive waxes and polishes, cosmetics, and food products. "Carnuba" is a misspelling of "carnauba."
Carnauba wax can be purchased at auto supply stores, hardware stores, or online retailers that specialize in car detailing products. It is commonly used as a finishing wax or polish for cars to provide a glossy shine and protection to the paint surface.
Paraffin Wax is non-ionic but takes on the ionic character of the emulsification system used to make it in to an aqueous emulsion.

spansules are one type of granules that can be prepared with the help of waxes like carnuba wax to control the release of drug That's what my professor said But I am also looking for the perfect answer!!!!
This is a rather arbitrary question in that most waxes contain the same ingrediants. The most popular carnuba based waxes (with the exception of Syn-wax which is a polymer) are: Turtle Wax, McGuires, Mothers, Trewax, Syn-wax, Excaliber, DuPont, Formula One, Zymol and Zaino.
most glazing agents and gelling agents consists of gelatin, glucose syrup, carnuba wax and beeswax. but the ingredients vary.
Carnuba wax - is used in many confectioneries, not just tic-tacs. Jelly beans are also coated with it to make them shiny. It's used in the pharmaceutical industry to coat tablets - making them easier to swallow. It's also used in car polish and shoe polish - again its purpose is to enhance the shine.
Depends on how broad your definition of "food" is, I guess. Either Smarties or M&M's (maybe both) are coated with carnuba wax. It's one of the reasons they melt in the mouth and not in the hand.
