Fully Refined Paraffin Wax 50 kg
Fully refined paraffin wax is a type of wax that has undergone a refining process to remove impurities and unwanted components. It is a white, odorless, and tasteless wax that is solid at room temperature and has a relatively low melting point.
The refining process involves several steps, including solvent extraction, deoiling, and bleaching. Solvent extraction involves dissolving the crude wax in a solvent, which separates the wax from other components such as oil and grease. Deoiling involves removing any remaining oil and grease from the wax through vacuum distillation. Bleaching involves removing any remaining color or odor from the wax through the use of chemical agents.
Fully refined paraffin wax is commonly used in a variety of applications, including candle making, coating materials, packaging, and cosmetics. Its properties, such as its low melting point and ability to retain fragrance and color, make it a popular choice in these industries
