Abstract:
1. A method of making a morphology stable wax composition comprising the steps of: (a) providing a composition comprising a triglyceride stock, a fatty acid stock, or a mixture thereof; (b) providing a glycerol-based composition comprising glycerol, polyglycerol, or a mixture thereof, wherein the glycerol-based composition comprises: about 75 wt % or greater total of polyglycerol species comprising diglycerol, triglycerol, and tetraglycerol; and up to about 10 wt % or less total of polyglycerol species of hexaglycerol and greater; and (c) reacting the composition of step (a) with the glycerol-based composition of step (b) under reaction conditions sufficient to transesterify the composition of step (a) with the glycerol-based composition of step (b) to produce the morphology stable wax composition.
