Thermal parameters of insect waxes could be recorded by DSC and characterized, such as melting
point[9], softening point, melting peak, melting and crystallization enthalpies[10] and change of specific
heat capacity[11].
2.3. Softening point, melting peak and melting point of insect waxes and the compared samples
From DSC curves showed in Fig. 1 to Fig. 6, values of softening point, melting peak and melting point
were obtained as Table 2
