Gum Rosin (also called Colophony, pine rosin) Chunks, light yellow-amber color, is a solid form of resin obtained from pines. Used in printing inks, varnishes, adhesives/glues, soap, paper sizing, soda, soldering fluxes, sealing wax and depilatory wax. Rosin is a specific type of resin, a transparent solid made from the crude gum of pine and spruce trees. Made through distillation with removing gum turpentine.

TECHNICAL DETAILS:
- Melting point: 110 - 135 ℃
- Solubility: Gum rosin is insoluble in water but readily soluble in many organic solvents, including alcohols (e.g., ethanol, isopropanol), turpentine, acetone, benzene, toluene, ether, and chloroform.
It is also soluble in oils (such as vegetable oils, linseed oil, and mineral oils), particularly when heated.
Gum rosin dissolves in molten waxes, including paraffin wax and beeswax, forming homogeneous blends upon heating.
In alkaline solutions, gum rosin does not simply dissolve but reacts with bases (e.g., sodium hydroxide) to form water-soluble rosinates (soaps).
This material has NOT been certified for food-grade or pharmaceutical-grade use.
