Wood Rosin Applications
Gum Rosin is used in the formulation of printing inks, varnishes, adhesives (glue), soaps, paper sizing, baking soda, solder flux, and sealing wax.
Rosin is used as a polish in pharmaceuticals and chewing gum, and its E number is E915. Its related glyceride, E445, is used as an emulsifier in soft drinks. In the pharmaceutical industry, rosin is an ingredient in various bandages and ointments.
In industrial applications, rosin is a precursor to solder flux. Lead-tin solder, commonly used in electronics, contains about 1% rosin as a flux core. This helps the molten metal flow and improves the joint by reducing the refractory solid oxide layer on the surface to metal. Rosin often appears as a charred or transparent residue around newly soldered joints.
A mixture of pitch and rosin can be used to create a polished surface for glass, which is crucial in the manufacture of optical components such as lenses.
In construction, small amounts of rosin are added to traditional linseed oil/sand joint fillers.
When mixed with waxes and oils, rosin is a key component of the mysterious fumes. When this gel-like substance is rubbed and stretched quickly, wisps of smoke appear to emerge from the fingertips.
