When/where does the chemistry happen when making crayons?

  • Answer:

    The wax and the pigment must mix perfectly, the pigment must not be toxic, the wax and the pigment must be inert towards a large number of household chemicals, the pigment should be washable. All of the above can only be answered by Chemistry.

I am not sure how much chemistry there is. It is just melted wax molded into shape and colored with dye.
