Crayons - interesting facts and information

  1. Composition: Crayons consist of a core, which is usually made of color pigments mixed with a binding material such as wax, clay or oil. The core is protected by a wooden cover, which makes it easier to hold the crayon and protects the core from damage.
  2. Crayon types: There are many different types of crayons, differing in core type and application. The most common types of crayons are wax crayons, pencil crayons (with a graphite core), water crayons (water soluble) and pastel crayons.
  3. Application: Wax crayons are most commonly used by children for drawing and coloring because of their durability and vibrant colors. Pencil crayons are popular among artists and professional users for their ability to draw precise lines and shading. Water crayons can be dissolved in water to create an effect similar to watercolor. Pastel crayons have a soft core and are often used to create painterly effects.
  4. History: Crayons in their current form have a long history. The first wax crayons were invented in the 17th century. Initially, they were simple rods of wax that could be used for writing or drawing. Later, a wooden cover was introduced to make the crayon easier to hold. Pencil crayons appeared in the 19th century, and pastel crayons have roots going back to ancient Egypt.
  5. Innovations: With advances in technology, innovations in crayons have also been introduced. Crayons with additional features are now available on the market, such as double-sided crayons with different colors, automatic crayons without the need for sharpening and gel crayons with intense colors.
