Paraffin Wax

Product Introduction:

Paraffin wax is a colorless or white, soft, solid wax that is derived from petroleum. It is a mixture of long-chain hydrocarbons, primarily of the straight-chain alkane series. It is one of the most commonly used waxes in the world and is widely used in various industries for its numerous benefits.

Application:

Paraffin wax can be classified into two categories based on the melting point. The first category is low-melting point paraffin wax, which has a melting point of around 50-60°C. The second category is high-melting point paraffin wax, which has a melting point of around 60-70°C. The low-melting point paraffin wax is used in industries that require a low melting point, such as cosmetics, while the high-melting point paraffin wax is used in industries that require a high melting point, such as candle making.

Paraffin wax is a versatile material that has numerous advantages, including low cost, colorless and odorless appearance, good thermal conductivity, and ease of handling. It is widely used in various industries such as candle making, cosmetics, food, pharmaceuticals, and packaging. Its ability to be easily blended with other materials to create custom formulations makes it a popular choice in industries that require specific properties.
