Paraffin wax, colorless to white translucent lumps, pure paraffin wax It is white, while paraffin containing impurities is yellow, tasteless, odorless, and greasy. Soluble in ether, chloroform, benzene, petroleum ether, volatile oil or various fatty oils, slightly soluble in ethanol. It has stable chemical properties and does not react with acids, alkalis, oxidants and reducing agents. It will turn yellow under ultraviolet irradiation, can burn and decompose, and is stable at room temperature. It is understood that paraffin wax is divided into crude paraffin wax, semi-refined paraffin wax, fully refined paraffin wax and food wax according to the degree of refining of paraffin wax. The deeper the degree of refining, the lighter the color and the better the product quality and the higher the production cost.
Semi-refined paraffinand fully refined How is paraffin different? Let us learn about it together:
1. Different functions:
Fully refined paraffin refers to oil-containing wax as raw material. A product obtained by sweating or solvent deoiling, and then refined by clay or hydrogenation.
Semi-refined paraffin is not only an important petroleum product, but also an important substance widely used in various industries and closely related to the lives of the general public.
2. Different characteristics:
Semi-refined into plate-like white solid. Its relative density increases with the rise of melting point. The product has good chemical stability, moderate oil content, good moisture-proof and insulation properties, and good plasticity. Candles produced from semi-refined paraffin wax have a concentrated flame that is smokeless and does not shed tears.
Fully refined paraffin wax is also called refined white wax. The appearance of fully refined paraffin wax is white solid, with lump and granular products. Its products have a higher melting point, less oil content, no sticking, no sweating, no greasy feeling at room temperature, and are waterproof, moisture-proof and electrically insulating.
3. Different applications:
Semi-refined paraffin is used in candles, crayons, wax paper, general telecommunications equipment, short circuits, light industry, and chemical raw materials.
Fully refined paraffin wax is mainly used in high-frequency porcelain, carbon paper, decorative sound-absorbing panels and other products. Also used in packaging, electronics, textile candle crayons, match manufacturing and other industries.
