KahlWax 6202 Micro is a white hydrocarbon wax with chemistry and applications similar to natural ozokerites. It has a higher molecular weight and viscosity compared to most waxes in this group. It offers excellent oil-binding capacity, particularly in lipsticks, where it also regulates melting point and hardness. Additionally, it stabilizes the consistency of W/O emulsions and enhances storage stability without increasing viscosity.
