Paraffin Wax Features and Advantages:

Paraffin wax is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons, typically containing between 20 and 40 carbon atoms per molecule. The exact chemical composition of paraffin can vary depending on the source and the manufacturing process used to produce it.

Paraffin wax is a type of wax that is derived from petroleum, coal, or oil shale. It is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons, typically containing between 20 and 40 carbon atoms per molecule. Paraffin is widely used in various industries, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food, and industrial applications.

Paraffin wax is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless substance that is solid at room temperature and melts at a relatively low temperature, typically between 47°C and 64°C (116°F and 147°F). It has a low thermal conductivity, which makes it useful as an insulating material, and it is also relatively inert and non-toxic.

Refined Paraffin Wax is the process that to improve the purity, color, and odor of the paraffin, making it a more desirable material for many applications. The level of refinement can be controlled based on the specific requirements of the end use, and different refining processes may be used to achieve different levels of purity and quality.

The degree of refinement can vary depending on the intended use of the wax. There are different grade of Paraffin Waxes :

Paraffin Wax Usage and Application :

The application of paraffin wax is determined by referring to the grading of paraffin.

Paraffin wax grading usually refers to the level of refinement and purity of the wax, as well as its melting point and other physical properties. Completely refined paraffin is mostly used in cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries, and semi-refined paraffin is used in applications such as candle making, rubber and tire production, and ink and coating.

Common application of paraffin wax in industries are as below:

popular material for making candles due to its ease of use, low cost, and clean-burning properties is paraffin.

Paraffin due to its emollient properties used as a base for ointments and creams

as a coating material for paper and cardboard to improve their water resistance and durability used paraffin.

in textile finishing to provide water resistance and to improve the texture and appearance of fabrics.

in various types of industrial coatings, including paints, varnishes, and sealants as a component apply paraffin.

in various cosmetic products, such as lip balms, lotions, and hair conditioners, to provide moisture and a smooth texture used paraffin.

in production of certain types of Cheeses to prevent mold growth used paraffin as a coating and as a glaze on fruits and vegetables to improve their appearance and extend their shelf life.

Paraffin is used as a processing aid and a lubricant in the production of rubber and tires.

due to paraffin low thermal conductivity for electrical cables and wires as an insulation material used.

Paraffin Wax Storage and Transport:

Paraffin wax should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and 25°C (50°F and 77°F), and the wax should be kept at a consistent temperature to avoid melting or freezing.

It should be stored in a cold and dry place.
