Beeswax has a relatively low melting point range of 62 Â°C to 64 Â°C (144 Â°F to 147 Â°F). If beeswax is heated above 85 Â°C (185 Â°F) discoloration occurs. The flash point of beeswax is 204.4 Â°C (400 Â°F). Density at 15 Â°C is 958 kg/mÂ³ to 970 kg/mÂ³. Natural beeswax: When cold it is brittle; at ordinary temperatures it is tenacious; its fracture is dry and granular. The sp. gr. at 15 Â°C [59 Â°F] is from 0.958 to 0.975, that of melted wax at 98 Â°C to 99 Â°C [208.4 Â°F to 210.2 Â°F] compared with water at 15.5 Â°C [59.9Â°F] is 0.822.
