Wax seal applys to letters and papers is a very ancient tradition.There are information at all times and in all over the world,especially in the middle ages in Europe that seals have become particularly popular culture.Till now,it still applys in different fields.The traditional sealing wax is given priority to with rosin, shellac and turpentine are supplements, process and temperature is very elaborate and important.The choice of paint is also very limited,mainly uses the vermilion ,turquoise and other mineral pigments which extracted by manual grinding.So what we see the traditional seal wax always is red primarily.Traditional sealing wax is firm but fragile,has obvious rosin smell,is one of the most expensive goods in that times.
With the development of industrial civilization,the ingredients of seal wax become richer and pigment choice are more.Through constantly improving，now seal wax possesses moderate toughness and be more widely available,its function also tends to commercialization and ornamentality.
We produce seal wax that is based on traditional seal wax formula.We further improved it and chooseeco-friendly materials.After nearly 10 years of improvement and perfect the ratio of scientific ,keeping the textures of traditional seal wax as far as possible,meanwhile combines the advantages of modern seal wax.At present,our existing in the production of color has reached 108.
Seal wax is oily system,in principle for coated paper, especially heavy coated paper that adhesiveness is poor.So we suggest that in considering the adaptability of paper,we should as chooce as possible wood pulp paper without coating layer.Good oil adsorption and water absorbent of pulp paper will be more guaranteed the strength of the adhesive.The influence of the coated paper also depends on the coating layer materials,if the polarity of coating layer is same as the sealing wax that it will does not affect the effect of bonding.What kind of paper and bonding effect should be subject to test.
The material which fit in with the seal wax is not only limited to the paper,for the other materials that the effect of bonding is also different because of different material,such as glass, china,metal and wood.To go through the test to verify the specific effect, in our experience, wood belongs to the material of low density which can adsorbed water, are more easily to form long-term adhesive seal.High density materials such as metal is not easy to bonding.And the oil-bearing material like glass will also affect the bonding effect.Therefore when wax seal with high density materials that must be appropriate to heat oil to strengthen bonding effect.
The material of seal wax is different from inkpad and resin glue,its itself is a kind of hot melt material. So we need to rely on tools to heating melt.There are a lot of common methods,such as having a built-in cotton core burning melt,lighters or spray gun, hot melt glue gun or melting furnace, hot air gun and metal spoon heating.
Another common question of beginner is that the flame burning ashes.Practician will consciously clean up ashes,but when beginners can not avoid this,most of us can through stirring to absorb the ashes.
