-== Description ==
-A white or slightly yellowish [[mineral wax]] prepared from purified and decolorized [[ozocerite]]. Ceresin is refined by treating powdered ozocerite with concentrated [[sulfuric acid]] then filtering through animal [[charcoal]]. The resultant wax is similar to [[paraffin wax|paraffin]], but is harder and has a higher melting point. Ceresin is composed of a wide range of long chain saturated hydrocarbons ranging from C20 to C32. Ceresin is used for candles, textile and paper sizing, floor polish, waterproofing, shoe polishes, and leather coating.
