1. Specific gravity test

To identify beeswax, you can test the specific gravity. The specific gravity of beeswax is between 1.05 and 1.10. Make saturated brine with water and salt in a ratio of 1:4. Finally, put the beeswax into the salt water. Real beeswax will float on the surface of salt water, while fake beeswax will sink to the bottom.

2. Ether test

In addition, the ether test can also be used to identify beeswax. After dropping a drop of ether on the surface of the beeswax, the real beeswax will not show any reaction, while the fake ones will not react. The area where the beeswax has been dripped with ether may corrode and become sticky.

3. Sound test

Beeswax can also be identified by testing the sound. Put the unembedded beeswax beads in your hands and gently rub them. The real beeswax will emit a soft sound. , a slightly dull sound. If the beeswax is made of plastic or resin, the sound will be crisper.
