Paraffin wax is a white or colorless soft solid derivable from petroleum, coal or oil shale, that consists of a mixture of hydrocarbon molecules containing between twenty and forty carbon atoms. It is solid at room temperature and begins to melt above approximately 37 °C (99 °F). Fully refined paraffin waxes typically have a low oil content (below .5% by weight), good color (+28 min ASTM), and are very hard. These types of waxes offer a variety of beneficial properties in numerous applications. Paraffin wax alone is used in many purposes such: Candle making, Food Wrap, Corrugated Containers, Nursery Stock, Textiles, Cheese and Vegetable Coatings, Hot Melt Adhesives and Coatings, Cosmetics, Inks and Polishes,fertilizers,shoe wax, crayons, waxed paper, varnishe and more. It’s also used as an additive in tires, can be used for many types of board waxesused as a blending in other petroleum based, oil and jelly products.

Now in factories two grades of semi refined paraffin wax are produced:

• Snow white semi refined paraffin wax oil content 1-2 percent
• Snow white semi refined paraffin wax oil content 3-5 percent

The packaging of paraffin wax slabs are:

• 5kg single slab wrapped in polythene bag
• 25kg to 27 kg(5 slabs) gross in white polypropylene woven bag or black plastic bag
