Abstract: The wax emulsions have a great industrial importance as these are used in

various fields like protective coatings of fruits, seeds, cemented material, paper boards

etc. They showed great water repellency, lubrication, sewability and finishing to the first

product when applied to knitting yarn in textile industry. In present work a few useful

emulsions are prepared by using paraffin and bees waxes. A variety of emulsifiers and

stabilizers were checked to serve the purpose. The best sprayable emulsions were

obtained using stearic acid triethanolamine and oleic acid triethanolamine as

emulsifiers. Application on cemented materials was also checked.
