Micronized waxes are used as internal and external lubricants to reduce friction between plastic particles and equipment and to improve the flow and processing properties of plastics. For example, in powder coating, adding 1%-5% of wax micronized wax can reduce screw torque by 10%-15%, reduce power consumption and increase production per unit time.
Micronized wax can improve the surface gloss and abrasion resistance of plastic products and reduce surface defects during processing. For example, PTFE micronized wax can reduce the surface properties of the material and effectively improve the lubricity and wear resistance of the material.
Micronized wax can also be used as a mold release agent to help plastic products release smoothly from the mold.

Modern mineral base oils are the result of a long and complex distillation and refining processes. The feedstock used is crude oil. This substance is not of uniform quality but consists of several thousands of hydrocarbon compounds in which the elements carbon and hydrogen are present in all molecules and, in part, are bound to other elements.
The hydrocarbons can be divided into three main groups: paraffinic, naphthenic and aromatic. Paraffinic hydrocarbons can be further divided into two subgroups: normal paraffinic and iso- paraffinic.
Paraffinic hydrocarbons are the best lubricants. The distillation process in the refinery separates the hydrocarbons contained in the crude into cuts based on the molecule size.
Furthermore, as many unwanted substances as possible are removed in the process, such as sulphur, aromatic hydrocarbons, paraffin wax, etc. In other words the mineral oil production process is physical cleaning and the end product is so-called paraffinic base oil.
Most of the hydrocarbons in the base oil are paraffinic, but it also contains naphthenic and aromatic molecules. When the finished lubricant, such as motor oil, is made of these, several additive compounds are used to improve the base oil properties.
The final outcome can also be so-called naphthenic base oil, where most of the hydrocarbons are naphthenic. Their cold properties are excellent.
Soya wax, derived from natural soybean oil, is an exceptional choice for candle making due to its eco-friendly nature, smooth texture, and ability to produce clean, long-lasting burns. When you choose soya wax for your candle-making projects, you're opting for a sustainable product that supports the environment while providing a superior, high-quality candle. Key Features: 100% Natural and Renewable: Soya wax is made from pure soybean oil, making it a renewable, biodegradable resource. Unlike paraffin wax, which is derived from petroleum, soya wax is a more sustainable option for eco-conscious candle makers and consumers alike. It offers a natural alternative to synthetic waxes, ensuring that your candles are made from renewable resources and free from harmful chemicals. Clean and Long-Lasting Burn: Soya wax burns cleaner than many other types of wax, producing minimal soot and little to no harmful emissions. This clean burn not only improves indoor air quality but also extends the life of your candles. A soya wax candle can burn up to 50% longer than a paraffin wax candle of the same size, offering better value and greater satisfaction for your customers. Excellent Scent Throw: Soya wax has an impressive ability to hold and release fragrance. Whether you are creating subtle, floral notes or bold, spicy aromas, soya wax captures and delivers scents evenly throughout the candle's burn time. It has a superior scent throw, meaning your candles will fill the room with fragrance, enhancing any atmosphere. Smooth and Professional Finish: The texture of soya wax is smooth and creamy, making it easy to work with for both beginners and experienced candle makers. It melts at a lower temperature (around 120-125F), reducing the risk of overheating and making it easier to blend in fragrances and dyes. As it cools, it solidifies to a smooth, creamy finish, ideal for container candles or molded designs. Non-Toxic and Safe for Indoor Use: Because soya wax is non-toxic and free from harmful chemicals like lead or petrochemicals, it�¢??s an ideal option for families, pet owners, and those with sensitivities to synthetic materials. Soya wax candles are safe for use in homes, offices, and other indoor spaces, providing a soothing ambiance without concerns about the air quality. Sustainable Packaging Options: Many soya wax suppliers are committed to sustainability not only in their product but also in their packaging. Often, soya wax is sold in bulk in recyclable or biodegradable materials, further reducing its environmental impact. This makes soya wax a great option for those looking to reduce waste and increase sustainability in their craft.
Candelilla wax, also known as Candelilla wax, light yellow shiny waxy solid, fragrant odor, brittle and hard plant wax. Candelilla wax contains special resin composition and strong resistance to temperature change. Candelilla wax is a natural wax, which is a natural biological wax extracted from candelilla.
(1) Contains moderate resin content;
(2) Due to its low shrinkage rate, when mixed with other waxes, it can solidify them without increasing their melting point;
(3) Has moisture resistance;
(4) It has excellent emulsifying properties.
(5) Candelilla wax can improve its overall quality such as ductility, pigment dispersibility, and resistance to peeling. At the same time, lipstick has a natural luster and lips feel very soft.
(6) Candelilla wax also has good emulsification, glossiness, transparency, moisture retention, release and plasticity, and is also a good viscosity and hardness regulator. It has been widely used in many fields.
The fully refined paraffin wax has a white solid appearance with block or granular structures. It has high melting point and low
oil contains. It also has features of no bonding, no sweating, no greasy feeling, waterproof, moisture-proof and electrical
insulation under normal temperature. Due to the depth of refinement, the products are of low content of polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons, good chemical stability and light stability, strong toughness, good plasticity, white color, no mechanical
impurities and water, and no smell. Fully refined paraffin can be dissolved in: benzene, ether, chlorofor m, carbon disulfide,
carbon tetrachlori de, turpentine, petroleum, and fixed oil.
Paraffin Wax is produced by Refineries in Northeastern China, which adopts modern technology of solvent and hydrorefining. Semi Refined Paraffin Wax is widely used in candles, rubber tire and wrapper industries, etc. Paraffin Wax is mostly found as a white, odorless, tasteless, waxy solid.
