Paraffin Wax

Paraffin waxes in a solid state are usually white, translucent, tasteless and odorless. They are hard, relatively brittle and have a slightly dry feel. In a molten state, paraffin waxes are clear, colorless liquids of low viscosity. When melted, these waxes increase in volume by about 5-8%, resulting in a decrease in density. Paraffin will react at high temperatures with either oxidizing or halogenating agents. This reaction produces either fatty acids and hydroxy acids or halogen substitution products respectively. Although paraffin has many useful characteristics, most commercial applications are based on its resistance to water and vapor and its glossy appearance when polished.

Slack Wax is mixture of paraffin wax and oil originated from petroleum crude oil. Slack Wax oil content can range from 10% to 30%. Slack Wax is produced during the production of Group I lube base oil. During production of Group I lube base oil, the feedstock firstly has to go through solvent extraction process to remove aromatics and the resultant product is called raffinate. The raffinate is then diluted with solvent like methyl-ethyl ketone (MEK) to lower its viscosity to improve low-temperature filterability. The diluted oil is then chilled to -10�°C to -20�°C. Wax crystals will form, precipitate and removed by filtration. The removed wax becomes Slack Wax. The traditional usage of Paraffin Slack Wax is in the production of fully refined paraffin wax. And other major usage are for particle board and medium density fiberboard, cable filing compound , matches, candles, rust protective products and moisture vapor barriers. With the continuous closure of Group I base oil plant which decrease supply, and new major applications for Slack Wax as feedstock for low sulfur fuel and Group III base oil plant, the price of Paraffin Slack Wax has since increased by a staggering 300% since early 2000

What is Parraffin Wax? Paraffin wax is made from natural crude oil,available in white slab and granule,odorless without physical impurity, water and additives. Crude paraffin with high oil content is mainly used for making matches, fiberboard, awning canvas, etc. Fully refined paraffin and semi refined paraffin wax are widely used. They are mainly used as ingredients and packaging materials for food and certain commodities (such as wax paper, crayons, candles, carbon paper), coating materials for baking containers, preservation of fruits, insulation of electrical components, improvement of aging resistance and flexibility of rubber. It can also be used for oxidation to produce fatty acids. Fully refined paraffin and semi refined paraffin wax are widely used. They are mainly used for food and some products (such as wax paper, crayons, candles, carbon paper) components and packaging materials, coating materials for baking containers, for fruit preservation, insulation of electrical components, improving rubber aging resistance and increasing flexibility, etc .It can also be used for oxidation to produce fatty acids. Property: The fully refined paraffin wax has a white solid appearance with block or granular structures. It has high melting point and low oil contains. It also has features of no bonding, no sweating, no greasy feeling, waterproof, moisture-proof and electrical insulation under normal temperature. Due to the depth of refinement, the products are of low content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, good chemical stability and light stability, strong toughness, good plasticity, white color, no mechanical impurities and water, and no smell. Fully refined paraffin can be dissolved in: benzene, ether, chloroform, carbon disulfide, carbon tetrachloride, turpentine, petroleum, and fixed oil.

Residue Wax also known as foot oil is a byproduct obtained during the production of semirefined paraffin wax It contains oil content that prevents it from being solid at room temperature Residue wax is used in various applications including the rubber industry shoe polish formulations and in making various protective coatings

Slack Wax, minimally refined paraffinic wax obtained from the dewaxing process of base oil lubricants. It is used in a wide range of applications, including as a blending component in the production of paraffin waxes, as a waterproofing agent, and in the manufacture of candles, rust protective products, and board sizing.

Paraffin Wax, A refined and solid wax derived from petroleum, coal, or oil shale. Known for its excellent insulation properties and low reactivity, paraffin wax is extensively used in candle making, coating for waxed paper or cloth, and in cosmetics such as cold creams and ointments.
