SHELLAC GUM

Shellac is the resinous secretion of the lac insect, belonging to the “Coccidae”, very common in India.

 

Gum shellac contains about 5% wax and gives elastic, glossy and adhesive films, which become insoluble and darker with aging.

 

It is used as a final varnish for wooden objects and as a protective coating for gold leaves.
