Zrax is a condensation product between naphthalene and formadehyde. It is similar to Hyrax, which is no longer available, and Naphrax, which is also not available. Zrax is dissolved in toluene and is a clear very light yellow material with a refractive index of greater than 1.70 in the solid.

- Styrax - diatom mounting media (521)
Styrax is made from pure gum storax according to directions from Robert Firth and Bernard Hartley, as conveyed by Klaus Kemp from Somerset County, UK. The manufacturing process at Montana Diatoms provides a stable, permanent resin of relatively low refractive index when compared to Hyrax and pleurax, which is useful for highly-silicified frustules such as those found in fossil diatomites. Unlike other manufacturer's production, this resin hardens completely without prolonged heating and is completely free of small particulates, making it suitable for use in darkfield examination.
