Thus, surge in demand of end users industries is pivotal factor in growth of global wax market. Bio wax products are widely used in personal care products.

Currently though there is strong supply of natural and synthetic wax, but with time there are concern whether overall supply of wax would be able to meet the rising demand of wax. The global wax market that is dominated by petroleum wax is now on decline. Over past few years there is significant decrease in Group I lubricant and wax capacity in North America and lately in Europe too. Petroleum waxes are derived from lower quality base oils and majority of refiners are drifting away from producing these base oils, which would lead to shortage of petroleum waxes. Moreover, these refiners with evolving technology are now switching to catalytic dewaxing technologies, which do not produce wax.

Waxes are a diverse class of organic compounds that are lipophilic, malleable solids near ambient temperatures. They include higher alkanes and lipids, typically with melting points above about 40 °C (104 °F), melting to give low viscosity liquids. Waxes are insoluble in water but soluble in organic, nonpolar solvents. Natural waxes of different types are produced by plants and animals and occur in petroleum. Waxes are organic compounds that characteristically consist of long alkyl chains. They may also include various functional groups such as fatty acids, primary and secondary long chain alcohols, unsaturated bonds, aromatics, amides, ketones, and aldehydes. They frequently contain fatty acid esters as well. Synthetic waxes are often long-chain hydrocarbons (alkanes or paraffins) that lack functional groups.

Nightmares on Wax is a pioneer in the cross between soul and the ever-evolving genre of trip-hop. His career, one that has spanned close to 30 years of mixing, mastering and recording music for the masses, has seen a lot of places and people. Perhaps the best part of his job is the amount of travel that leads to the constant introduction to all walks of life that appear no different from the rest of us although in some cases were told the opposite. Its the latter notion that sparked the impetus of his latest album Shape the Future, packed with sleek and sleepy vibes than youd normally hear from preceding albums, but delivering a strong message of consciousness for the world and the ever-evolving ecosystem it hosts. NoW, (real name George Evelyn) has embarked on a North American tour off the heels of a widely successful UK jaunt promoting Shape the Future. One of his first stops was earlier this month playing a sold-out set inside Underground Arts. But a recent conversation with PW was less about his stop in Philly and his North American tour, but a deep dive into the big picture that served as fuel for Shape the Future. A picture that conveyed just how many of us he feels are allowing the news around us to play us all like puppets on a proverbial string.[Ref: philadelphiaweekly.com]
