High-Yield Explanation
Carnauba wax is often replaced in part by certain synthetic waxes that are compatible with paraffin wax. At least two waxes of this type can be used. One is a complex nitrogen derivative of the higher fatty acids and the other contains esters of acids derived from montan wax, a derivative hard wax that is obtained by solvent extraction of certain types of lignite or brown coal. Approximately a third of all montan wax produced is used in automobile polishing pastes.
