Surf wax makes your board or whatever sticky so surf wax is for sticking. Curb wax is normally used for sliding with grinds, so it's slippery.

Surf wax = sticky

Curb wax = slippery

The interaction between wax paper and water is it cohesive?

The interaction between wax paper and water is more related to adhesion than cohesion. Water molecules are attracted to the wax molecules in the paper, causing the water to spread out and stick to the surface of the paper. This adhesion is what makes water bead up or stick to wax paper.


Why a water drop just sits on the wax paper without sinking into the paper?

The surface tension of water causes it to bead up and resist being absorbed by the wax paper. This occurs because the cohesive forces between water molecules are stronger than the adhesive forces between water and wax paper. As a result, the water drop appears to sit on the surface of the paper without sinking.


Do soy candles or wax candles cost more?

Soy candles generally tend to cost more than traditional wax candles due to the higher cost of soy wax compared to paraffin wax. However, the price difference can vary depending on the brand, quality, and size of the candles. It's best to compare prices from different brands to find the best option for you.


What happens to the forces between wax particles when it melts?

When wax melts, the forces between its particles, primarily van der Waals forces, weaken as the temperature increases. This weakening allows the particles to move more freely, transitioning from a solid structure to a liquid state. As a result, the wax becomes less rigid and more fluid, enabling it to flow and take the shape of its container.
