| ROSS Montan Wax |
 |
Montan Wax is derived from lignite which is vegetable matter partly mineralized to a product related to bituminous coal. The lignites from which the Montan Waxes are extracted are found chiefly in Central Europe and California.
The method of extraction and refining is basically the same, both in this country and in Europe. The waxy part is extracted from the lignites (crushed to apowder form) by selective solvents. Then the wax is purified.
