A good description of the 'Sweating' phenomenon.However,to my knowledge the word'Hydroscopic' does not appear in any dictionary.

Carnauba wax is inherently 'Hygroscopic',in that it has a natural tendancy to retain moisture/oil(fatty acids),and then 'sweat' out the excess once the wax film has hardened.
