1402. ------. [I. G. FARBENINDUSTRIE, A. G.] [Preparation of Waxy Substances.] German Patent Appl. I 77,177. OZ 14,684. filed Apr. 1, 1944 (Cl. IV d-12 o). FIAT Reel 171. frames 10,134-10,135: PB 25,615: Meyer Transl. PC-S-IV, Wax Oxidation. Vol. 3. chap. 42, 1949. p. 20.

Process of German Patent Appl. I 74,553 (abs. 1400) and I 75,540 (abs. 1206) is improved by adding to the waxy substances obtained by the oxidation of a 100º melting-point paraffin the salts of multivalent metals with products, which have been obtained by oxidizing aliphatic hydrocarbons melting >35º and containing at least 30%, acidic constituents. The resulting products have the properties of hard wax and are suitable for making shoe polish, treating leather, preparing varnish, and processing synthetic resins.
