BLEACHED SHELLAC

Seedlac is dissolved in Alkali medium and bleached with Sodium Hypochlorite and produced in powder form. Dewaxed white shellac is used the same way as you would use any other grade of shellac. The major difference between this shellac and the others is that it is a bit harder, shines a bit brighter, is completely free from wax.

Dewaxed Bleached Shellac Powder is non-toxic, wax free odorless shellac widely used in pharmaceutical products. Dewaxed Bleached Shellac Powder that we offer is made keeping the set FDA standards in view. This shellac is fast drying and almost transparent in solution.

ORIGIN:

Used since ancient times, lac is a natural resin of outstanding properties and exceptional versatility. The only known resin of animal origin, it is actually the hardened secretion of a tiny insect, Laccifer laccca.

It is used in variety of products like pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food industry & some other industrial applications. This durable and amorphous non toxic natural resin offers excellent physical and chemical features and is thus a sustainable organic and biodegradable natural resin preferable in many respects to synthetic resins.

Shellac has become an ideal base for binders and insulating products, primers and stabilizing coatings because of its high degree of elasticity & film forming characteristics.

Raw Shellac (Sticklac) contains approx: 40-60% pure Shellac, 4-6 % Shellac Wax and impurities, like sticks and sand etc and about 8 % of color.
