Beeswax-Carnauba Emulsion Wax from China
A liquid wax emulsion blending beeswax and carnauba wax in an aqueous dispersion, used for fruit coating applications. This product is a prepared wax obtained by mixing different waxes, but because it is dispersed in a liquid medium, it is excluded from heading 34.04 by chapter note 5(d). It is classified under tariff item 3404.90.90 as 'Other' prepared waxes, as the exclusion does not apply to emulsions of waxes for coating purposes.
