Bone wax
CuraWax® is a non-absorbable haemostatic bone wax and is fabricated from a mixture of beeswax (80%) and
isopropyl palmitate (20%). It is obtained by fusion with hot water from the walls of the honeycomb Apis mellifera
Linné, and isopropyl palmitate which is a solvent with good emulsifiability. CuraWax® is opaque and has a
distinctive odor and color.
