Paraffin, in general obtained as a side product from refinement of crude oil, after it is purified with special techniques and its oil ratio, freezing point, color and smell is improved, becomes ready for use. Paraffin, generally between 45°C and 72°C freezing point and with 1% and 35% oil rate in various features and crystal structures are being produced by Mercan Kimya and presented for the use of our customers.
Paraffin is a material that is widely used, primarily being in candle sector, in wood, paper, construction, agriculture, coating, physical therapy, medicine and cosmetic sectors. Since paraffin, due to its own chemical structure, is water repellent and has inert qualification, it is often used as water repellent agent in applications where water is not wanted or creates negative effects. Also, since paraffin behaves like an insulation material since its thermal conductivity is low as per its structure, it is often used in coating physical therapy, cosmetics and medical fields.
Separated by the melting point, the paraffin wax is usually at 2 C, as in us: 54-56 C, 56-58 C, 58-60 C, 60-62 C, 64-66 C. All types of wax products must withstand cold well for paraffin wax, which means that it does not melt or soften and does not deform at a specific temperature. Depending on the conditions of use, locations and seasons of use, as well as differences in the method of use, commercial paraffin wax is required for a series of different melting levels. Separated by oil knowledge, it can often be divided into: Fully refined paraffin, Semi-refined paraffin, and Crude wax. In addition, paraffin wax needs to be heat resistant, oil resistant and light resistant, otherwise the color will turn yellow after application. Excessive oil exposure impairs the color and stability of the paraffin wax, and also reduces its hardness. The main factors that affect the stability of paraffin wax are its non-hydrocarbon compounds and the low concentration of hydrocarbons.
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.

In industrial applications, it is often useful to modify the crystal properties of the paraffin wax, typically by adding branching to the existing carbon backbone chain.
