Paraffin Wax

Fully Refined Paraffin Wax is the most commonly used commercial wax. 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. The modification is usually done with additives, such as EVA copolymers, microcrystalline wax, or forms of polyethylene. The branched properties result in modified paraffin with a higher viscosity, smaller crystalline structure, and modified functional properties. Pure paraffin wax is rarely used for carving original models for casting metal and other materials in the lost wax process, as it is relatively brittle at room temperature and presents the risks of chipping and breakage when worked.

Applications :

• Candles
• Match boxes
• Pharma
• Manufacturing of petroleum jelly

Uses :

Liquid Paraffins are widely used in applications which include medical formulations, ointments, laxatives, repository vaccines, hair oils, hair creams, cosmetics, facial creams and lotions, gelatin capsules, food preservatives, protective coatings for fruits and vegetables, veterinary preparations, egg preservatives and as secondary plasticizer in plastic and petrochemical industry.

Introductions :
Montan Wax is a dark brown bituminous wax extracted from lignite and peat & Also called lignite wax.

Uses :
It is Majorly used in making car and shoe polishes and waxes for furniture, etc. It is also used for making paints, and phonograph records, and as lubricant for molding paper and plastics. Earlier its main use was to make carbon paper.

Residue Wax popularly known as foot oil. This residue wax is derived during the production of semi refined paraffin wax.

Uses :
Slack Waxes are widely used in the production of wax emulsions, construction board, matches, candles, rust protective products and moisture vapor barriers.

Residue Wax is used in tyre industry, shoe industry, plastic industry, match industry and polish making industries.
