For the male of the mesquite family insect ash borer, group inhabiting the white wax secreted on the branches of the ash tree, chaste tree and other species of plants of the genus chaste tree in the family of Xylocarpaceae, refined. wax is harvested between August and September. Early in the morning with a knife to cut off the wax covered branches, called wax flowers, into the boiling water pot to cook, so that the wax melting and floating on the water surface, cold condensed into a block. Take it out, then add water to heat and melt it, and then filter it and solidify it.
White wax
Also known as white wax, mainly produced in Guangdong Gaozhou, Dianbai and other counties (cities), its main features: medium tree growth potential; fruit nearly heart-shaped or ovoid, medium-large, single-fruit weight of 19 ~ 30 grams, skin thin bright red; flesh white wax color, flesh crisp and sweet; edible rate of 69.8% to 83.7%, soluble solids 17.2% to 20.4%, acid content 0.12 g/100 ml, medium-sized seeds, excellent quality, ripening in late May to early June. Early maturity, high quality and abundant yield of ash, can regulate the market supply, can be developed moderately.
Sichuan wax
Sichuan wax, also known as insect wax, belongs to the biological wax, is the wax secreted by the white wax bug in the parasitized chaste tree or ash tree branches. This secretion is scraped from the tree and dissolved in hot water to skim out the wax, then melted and filtered for refining and bleaching if necessary.

Question 2: What is insect white wax, white wax, Sichuan wax Insect white wax? Plants
Overview: This product is the wax secreted by the males of the insect of the family of mesopods, the white wax bugs, grouped in the branches and trunks of plants of the family of xylocarpaceae, the white wax tree, Fraxi-nus chinensis Ro激b., the chaste tree, Ligustrum lucidum Ait..., or the chaste tree genus of other species of plants, and it is made by refining.
Alias: White Wax, Worm Wax, Chuan Wax
So they are actually the same
Question 3: Can Worm White Wax be taken for a long time? What are the effects and side effects? Hello. Worm white wax, this product for the mesquite family insects white wax worm. Functions: Hemostasis, muscle growth, pain. Treatment of gold sores bleeding, urine blood, blood, sores and ulcers for a long time not convergence, chancre. It is a traditional Chinese medicine, long-term use of side effects on the human body. It is recommended to follow the doctor's instructions.
Question 4: Where is the insect ash seed, that is, put on the wax tree a kind of worm can produce ash? White wax bug, Ericeruspela (Chavannes) commonly known as wax bugs, white wax (Cerachinensis, also known as the worm white wax) real that is the secretion of the white wax bug, a specialty of China. China's rearing waxworms, began in the ninth century ago, Song and Yuan have been correctly documented in detail, to the Ming Dynasty, a big boom, Sichuan, Yunnan, Hubei and Hunan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are breeding. It is a kind of shellfish among insects, and it is heteromorphic between male and female. The female is fixed after maturity; the male has a pair of wings, but the life is short, not easy to find in the field. Wax secretion mainly depends on the ash borer larvae, the first instar female larvae do not secrete wax; the second instar female larvae can secrete a trace of wax powder. The second instar female larvae can secrete trace amount of wax powder. The first instar male larvae can secrete trace amount of wax filaments; the wax production of white wax bugs is mainly from the second instar male larvae.
China is the hometown of ash borer. It originated from the ancient Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and then gradually extended in the east and south directions; especially in the southern region, the climate is humid, and the average annual temperature is high, so the white wax bugs are concentrated in the Wumeng Mountains, Daliang Mountains, Dabashan Mountains, Wudang Mountains, and Daloushan Mountains, which form a semicircle of the word "[" in the center of the area. From the administrative area, the distribution of the white wax bugs spreads over eighteen provinces, districts and cities, including Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Hunan, Shaanxi, Hubei, Anhui, Jiangxi, Fujian, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangxi, Guangdong, Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Shanghai and ***. Among them, the first four provinces are the most important, Yunnan and Guizhou are characterized by the production of worms, and Sichuan and Hunan are characterized by the production of wax. Especially prominent is Sichuan Province, since the 1990s, whether in the insect, wax production or scientific research have been greatly improved and progress.
The distribution range of domestic ash borer, generally belongs to China's vegetation zoning in the subtropical broad-leaved evergreen forest areas; the northernmost collection of Shandong Laoshan, south of Hainan Island in Guangdong Province, the western boundary of Yunnan, *** (Chamdo region), east of the coastal provinces; ash borer's distribution area is located in the latitude of 26o13'-32o59', longitude 101o59', longitude 101o59'. The distribution area of the white wax bug is located at latitude 26o13'-32o59' north and longitude 101o37'-12lo07' east. The distribution center of the worm and wax is located between latitude 26o52'-32o54'N and longitude 103o45'-112o30'E, with the area of latitude 26o00'-32o40'N as its suitable area. The area of 26o00'-32o40'N latitude is the suitable zone for it. It can be stocked and bred in this area to extract the wax.
From the insect, wax production history, the species of insect production areas are concentrated in the following four areas:
1. Zhaotong area of Yunnan Province and Guizhou Province, west of Anshun, that is, the mountainous areas of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.
2. Xichang area and Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province, that is, the Hengduan Mountain Valley.
3. Nanjiang, Guangyuan and Wangcang in the north of Sichuan Province and Ningqiang, Zhenba, Nanzheng and Xixiang in Shaanxi Province, i.e., the mountainous belt of Sichuan and Shaanxi.
4. Meitan, Sinan, Majiang and other counties east of Guiyang in Guizhou Province, which belongs to the Qiandongtai slopes and flat dam area.
Of these four regions, the first two regions produce better quality seed bugs and the largest production. Their **** the same characteristics are: located between latitude 26o 29o; in the altitude of 1000-3000 meters in the high mountainous areas, the average annual temperature between 14-18 ℃, annual rainfall of about 1,000 millimeters, the winter and spring sunshine hours are particularly long and warm and dry. The annual sunshine is 1796-1918 hours.
The main production and distribution center of the insect ash is in the canyons of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan provinces, and the shallow hills of the Dabashan Mountains in Shaanxi and Sichuan, as well as the Wuling Mountains and the border of Hunan and Jiangxi in the area of the Mofu Mountains.
Sichuan Province is the center of China's production of insect ash, annual production accounts for more than 90% of the total national output. The ash production area in Sichuan province includes two areas: one is the lower reaches of Minjiang River, such as Emei, Leshan, Jiejiang, Hongya and other counties, which is the largest and best wax production area in the country. One is the middle and lower reaches of the Jialing River in the south, Yingshan, Peng'an, Guang'an and other counties. Their *** with the same characteristics are: the altitude of all over the 1000 meters below, and mostly belong to the 400 meters about the hills or plains. The average annual temperature is between 16.0-18.7℃, and the annual rainfall is between 1000-1500 millimeters. Male growth period of May-July, with high temperatures, and May-July generally no catastrophic winds, conducive to the activities of the first hatching larvae and set leaves and poles. The sunshine is very long throughout the year, at 1000-1500 hours, which helps the host plants of the ash borer to photosynthesize and accumulate nutrients. All these factors are beneficial to the growth, development and wax production of the ash borer.
In addition, the famous old wax-producing areas in China are Zhijiang, Xupu, Luxi, Qianyang, Hengyang and other counties in Hunan Province. The later developed production areas are: Ankang, Hanin, Nanzheng, Hanzhong, etc. in Shaanxi Province. Wuhan suburban counties and Enshi mountainous area in Hubei Province. In addition, Qianshan in Jiangxi Province, Anxi in Fujian Province, Lin'an, Yongkang, Wuxing and Jinhua in Zhejiang Province, Anhui ...... >>
Question 5: Is there a bug in the world called the white wax bug. What's the use of white wax bugs:
Insects, Hemiptera, Household suborder, Mealybugs, Wax Mealybugs, Wax Mealybugs, White Wax Bugs
Commonly known as the wax bugs, white wax (Cerachinensis, also known as the worm white wax) that the secretion of the ash bugs, a special product of China. The secretion of wax mainly depends on the wax bug larvae, the first instar female larvae do not secrete wax; the second instar female larvae can secrete a trace of wax powder. The second instar female larvae can secrete trace wax powder. The first instar male larvae can secrete trace wax filaments; the wax production of the white wax bug is mainly from the second instar male larvae. White wax bug secretion of white wax, for senior animal wax, high melting point (up to 80 ℃ ~ 85 ℃) quality area hard, white color, good transparency, stable physical and chemical properties, strong coagulation, odorless, tasteless, lubrication, widely used in chemical, industrial, pharmaceutical and other industries.
Question 6: What is made of wax Wax wax (year-end sacrifice); wax altar (wax sacrifice of the altar); wax bin (year-end sacrifice to help the priests); wax So (Utah wax sacrifice); wax ancestral temple (wax sacrifice shrine); wax Palace (for the wax sacrifice with the Palace); wax month (refers to the twelfth month of the weekly calendar); wax day (end of the year, wax sacrifice to the day of the eight gods); wax sacrifice (the name of the sacrifice. The year-end sacrifice to the gods)

Wax usually refers to fatty acids, monovalent or divalent fatty alcohols, and oily substances with a high melting point in a narrow sense; in a broader sense, it usually refers to fats and oils that have some similar properties. The definition of "wax" varies in different contexts. However, in a broad sense, wax is usually used to refer to plants, animals or minerals that are solid at room temperature, easily liquefied or vaporized when heated, easily burned, insoluble in water, and have a certain lubricating effect of the substance.
Polymer monohydric alcohols form esters with long-chain fatty acids. In the chemical structure is different from fat, also different from paraffin wax and synthetic polyether wax. Therefore, they are also called ester waxes. Waxes are water-insoluble solids that soften at slightly higher temperatures and harden when the temperature drops. Its biological function is to serve as a protective layer of the organism against the external environment, and is found on the surface of skin, fur, feathers, plant leaves, fruits, and the exoskeleton of many insects.
Long-chain fatty acid esters of polymer monohydric alcohols are called true waxes, such as beeswax, whose main component is the palmitic acid ester of a long-chain monohydric alcohol (C26 to C36), and wool waxes, which are very complex mixtures containing ester waxes, alcohols, and fatty acids. When purified, it is called lanolin, which is a fatty acid ester of wool sterols. Brazilian carnauba wax is an important plant wax, a mixture of ester waxes, with the chemical formula CH3(CH2)nCOO(CH2)n+1CH3, n = 22 to 32.
The solidification points of the waxes are all relatively high, ranging from about 38 to 90 degrees Celsius. Lower iodine values (1 to 15) indicate a lower degree of unsaturation than neutral fats.
Categories of waxes
en Usually, wax refers to candles. A candle is a vegetable or mineral wax.
Question 7: What is insect wax Wax produced by insects.
Also known as white wax, Chinese wax, Sichuan wax. It is one of the specialties of China. As early as in the 13th century, the Chinese have been used to produce insect wax by rearing the white wax bug (Ericerus pela or Coccus cerifera). The so-called white wax bug refers to a kind of insect parasitized on the chaste tree (Ligustrum lucidum Ait.) and the white ash tree (Fraxinus chinensis), and the insect wax is the substance secreted by the males in the white wax bug, which is esterified from twenty-six carboxylic acids and twenty-six-carbon monohydric alcohols. The main place of origin is Sichuan Province, China, so it is also known as Sichuan wax.
There are two main economic value: ① Chinese insect wax, that is, insect ash, mainly produced in Sichuan, China, is parasitic in the chaste tree or ash tree on the ash insect secretion of the substance. White or light yellow solid; melting point 80 ~ 85 ℃; its main component is twenty-six carbonate twenty-six carbon alcohol ester CH3 (CH2) 24COO (CH2) 25CH3, hardness, stable nature, insoluble in water, soluble in benzene, gasoline and other organic solvents. It is moisture-proof and rust-proof. Used in the manufacture of precision casting wax molds, shoe polish, floor wax, copy paper, coated paper, etc., but also used for precision instruments rust and Chinese medicine formulations. ②Indian insect wax, is parasitized on the Indian gum tree insects secreted a kind of gelatinous material, this gelatinous material dewaxing, insect wax as a by-product of gum get. The melting point of the crude product is 72-80℃, and the melting point of the commercial product is about 80-85℃. Cordyceps wax is used in the manufacture of candles and electrical insulation materials.
The product is white or light yellow solid with luster. Density(15℃):0.950～0.970g/cm3. melting point 80～85℃. Insoluble in water, ethanol and ether, soluble in benzene. Iodine value: 1.4; acid value: 0.2～1.5. saponification value: 70～93. In fact, natural insect wax also contains a small amount of high-level fatty acids, high-level monohydric alcohols and hydrocarbons. White wax can be used as raw materials for medicine, textile, wax paper, making models and so on.
Question 8: What is wax bug? What is its economic value? Waxworm
The waxworm is one of China's specialty resource insects. Alias "wax bug". Insects, wax family dioecious insects. The female is wingless, the body segments are not obvious, and the bitterness of the worm is obvious. The female has only three stages in her life: egg, larva and adult, which are incomplete metamorphosis; the male has four stages: egg, larva, pupa and adult, which are complete metamorphosis. Males secrete wax, females reproduce sexually and produce offspring, producing "seed insects", male and female insects are equally important in ash production. Ash Borer is one generation per year, the female adults lay eggs in March and April, the amount of eggs is about 7000 (the ratio of male to female is about 1:3). eggs hatch into larvae in April and May, the female larvae are dispersed and attached to the top of the leaves, the male larvae are grouped in the bottom of the leaves, and after 20 days, they moult into the 2nd instar larvae, which are attached to the branches, and the females are dispersed and the males grouped in the branches. the 2nd instar males larvae can secrete wax in the period of larvae. they turn into pupae in August, and the pupae are formed in early September, which is the first month to produce wax. Pupation in August, early September pupa feathering for male adults, early to find female adults to mate, 5 to 10 days after the death of the 2nd instar female larvae into adults in August, after mating, the body gradually grows, overwintering, to the following year in March to April to spawn, and soon died. The eggs in the egg shells are the seed bugs of the ash borer. The main plants of ash borer are ash tree and chaste tree. Ash Borer secretion of ash, for senior animal wax, high melting point (up to muscle ℃ ~ 85 ℃) quality area hard, white color, good transparency, stable physical and chemical properties, strong cohesion, odorless, tasteless, lubrication, widely used in chemical, industrial, pharmaceutical and other industries.
All over the state are produced, but in the south-central part of the state for more. In the past, Xichang wax central trading "bug will" between the name of the country, the current should be vigorously developed. Ash insect stocking and flower harvesting:
-, harvesting: excellent species of insects, robust host plants and management techniques are closely integrated, is to increase the production of ash, wax bugs indispensable guarantee. In the rain, between the summer, wax bugs ripe, must be removed from the tree, known as "picking insects", insects were reddish-brown, the surface of the sugar has dried, tear open the shell, no pulp, with a finger gently press the shell of the insect 2 ~ 3 times, the shell concave immediately after the shell pops up to return to its original shape, that is, for the maturity of the symbol, it should be timely picking. Picking insects, with the thumb and forefinger pinch the insects, shaking left and right, one grain by one grain off, light picking and light put, according to the level, old and young degree were placed in a ventilated large hole bamboo baskets, forbidden to wipe down the hand big hand. Picking time, generally cloudy days can pick all day; sunny day morning and evening picking. Picked insects, should be transported to a cool place in time to dry. Seed bugs are transported to the Tso area and over 8 to the destination before stocking, all must be spread to dry, so as not to heat necrosis.
Second, drying: seed insects picked back (transported back), immediately in the dark, ventilated, dry, cool. Clean houses (smoke, oil and fertilizers, pesticides and other smoked worms are strictly prohibited), with a clean cooler, sun mat, etc. spread a house of paper, spreading and drying (such as not spreading, 3 hours or so, that is, fever, resulting in death). When spreading and aging. The worms should be spread thinly into a layer (no more than 3 cm thick), gently turned 3 to 4 times a day with bamboo chopsticks to maintain the appropriate temperature. If you want to extend the hatching enamel period, delay the hanging, you can transfer the worm to a dark and low-temperature place.
Third, the bag of worms: to be the female bugs most of the hatch, see a few bugs outside the shell began to crawl, that is, with gauze (5 cm square), or oil tung leaves, straw, wrapped in cereal leaves, etc. will be bugs 1 to 5 (top bugs 1 to 3, medium bugs 3 to 5) package for a package. With the straw package of insects package length of about 10 cm, the bottom width of 3 cm; with the oil tung leaves package of insects, should be in the first 1 to 2 days before the leaf retrieval, drying moisture, wipe off the mud and sand, etc..
Fourth, hanging and management: white seed bugs hanging, management: in order to make the larvae hatch, set the leaves, on the tree neatly, reduce the rate of loss in the process of setting the leaves, packaged bugs packages are placed indoors (room temperature control in the range of 17 "~ 18 ℃), so that the bugs continue to hatch, the accumulation of the number of bugs mouth. When the hatching rate of the larvae reaches more than 80%, choose a sunny day to hang and put, the larvae can be set in 1 to 2 days, or even within a few hours all the leaves. The stalling time is generally no more than 15-20 days. Before hanging the application of 25% two two three emulsion 300 times liquid, or 90% crystal trichlorfon 1,000 times liquid, spraying clean insect garden; do a good job of pruning leaves; shoveling under the tree weeds. With straw wrapped insects, should be the bottom up, tied to hang in the two, three-year-old branches on the fork part, so that the insect package is easy to accept the sun early leafing, reduce and avoid the enemy and the rain stays in the package of insects, so that the humidity increases the loss caused by. Worm bag with oil tree leaves, to be in the side against the trunk with a bamboo skewer poked 7 to 8 small holes, so that the wax worms climbed out, in the two bottom corners of the bag each poked a hole, easy to leak. Tying and hanging time should choose the temperature of about 25 ℃. It is good to go in before 10 a.m. on a sunny day without wind ...... >>
Question 9: What is called animal wax? Animal waxes are common: insect wax, beeswax, whale wax, wool wax, etc.
Insect wax is insect white wax, characterized by high hardness, stable nature, insoluble in water, soluble in benzene, gasoline and other organic solvents.
Beeswax, characterized by irregular lumps, varying in size. It is yellow, yellowish brown or yellowish white, opaque or slightly transparent, with a smooth surface. The body is lighter, waxy, sandy in section, and can be softened by rubbing and pinching with hands. Honey-like aroma, taste slightly sweet. Beeswax is also used in the production of floor wax, a variety of wax varnish, crayon, ironing wax, etc., as well as folk batik process.
Cetus wax is a solid wax extracted from the head of the sperm whale grease by cooling and pressing. The refined product is white, odorless and shiny.
Wool wax, purified lanolin. It is a pale yellow or brownish-yellow ointment; viscous and slippery; the odor is faint and peculiar.
Question 10: What can be processed from the ash borer of the maidenhair tree? Ash Borer is utilized for its secretion of wax, can be made into worm white wax, worm white wax, the name of traditional Chinese medicine. For the mesquite family insects white wax bug Ericerus pela (Chavannes) Guerin's male group inhabited in the lignoceros family plant ash tree Fraxinus chinensis Roxb., chaste tree Ligustrum lucidum Ait. or chaste tree genus of other species of plants on the branches and trunks of the wax secreted by the refining and become. It is often used as excipient, lubricant for making pills and tablets.
