We classified the paraffin wax with a melting point of 56 to 62 ℃ medium melting point paraffin wax. By oil content and the degree of refinement, the crude versions fall into the slack wax category and contain oil content of 3% to 15%. After de-oiling, desulfurization and hydrogenation refining to remove impurities and discoloration, the oil content can 0.5%-2%. We normally separate them by semi refined paraffin wax and fully reply paraffin wax. Fully refined is the highest refinement, the oil content below 0.5% (for some high melt paraffin wax, the oil content may be below 0.75%). Semi refined paraffin waxes contain between 0.5 and 1.5% oil. Below we give you the product in this category together with their preference usage. If you didn't find the grade in below list, please send us inquiry.
We supply a variety of packaging formats. These include bulk liquid (via tank truck or railcar), slabs (10 lbs), free-flowing granules (packaged in bags), and free-flowing pastilles (packaged in bags).
