They contain Shellac as major component to which fillers and plasticizers are added.

Filllers like: Powdered Alumina and Mica which increases the strength. And Talc to improve the reproduction of fine detail of softened materials.

Platicizers include sterin and stearic acid. Stearic acid melts on above 69 degree C because of which shellac baseplates should not be overheated. If heated beyond 100 degree C they will start to polymerize which is a condensation reaction and gases starts to come out it ( seen as bubbling reaction).
