IMPROVED FOOD COATING COMPOSITION BASED ON WAX AND A POLYMER

摘要

The present invention describes a coating composition which comprises a polymer or copolymer comprising at least one of the following polymers or copolymers selected from the group consisting of: copolymer of vinyl acetate and dibutyl maleate, a poly acrylate, possibly mixed with other dispersions. The coating composition further comprises a wax and optionally at least one component selected from the group consisting of: surfactant, cellulose thickener, ascorbic acid, anti-microbial agent, polyvinyl alcohol, glycerine, and softener. In this way food products with non-blocking and peelable coatings may be produced.
