Oil Loss for 3% neat and binary mixtures of sunflower wax (SFW), rice bran wax (RBW), candelilla wax (CDW), and beeswax (BW) in olive oil. Values represent the means and standard deviation of n = 3 replicates.*

Oil loss (% w/w) in pure waxes
CDW	23.50 ± 2.12^b	SFW	0^a
RBW	0^a	BW	28.17 ± 2.47^c
Oil loss (% w/w) from wax blends in olive oil (1:1 w/w ratio)
RBW-SFW	0^a	RBW-CDW	17.04 ± 1.42^d
SFW-CDW	58.49 ± 0.70^b	RBW-BW	10.99 ± 0.33^e
SFW-BW	5.30 ± 0.07^c	CDW-BW	0^a
Oil loss (% w/w) from wax blends in olive oil (1:3 w/w ratio)
SFW-RBW	0^a	RBW-CDW	25.37 ± 0.71^d
SFW-CDW	10.34 ± 0.79^b	RBW-BW	0.94 ± 0.45^a
SFW-BW	15.09 ± 0.52^c	CDW-BW	0^a
Oil loss (% w/w) from wax blends in olive oil (3:1 w/w ratio)
SFW-RBW	0^a	RBW-CDW	0^a
SFW-CDW	28.26 ± 0.34^b	RBW-BW	0^a
SFW-BW	1.02 ± 0.54^c	CDW-BW	0^a

*Different superscript letters for each wax blend ratio represent statistically significant differences(P < 0.05) in oil loss between samples.
