Paraffin is a mixture of hydrocarbons extracted from some distillate of petroleum, shale oil, or other bituminous mineral oils. The main component is a solid alkane, odorless, tasteless, white or yellowish translucent solid. Paraffin wax is amorphous but has a distinct crystal structure. And artificial paraffin wax.
Paraffin wax is a kind of petroleum processing products, a kind of mineral wax, and a kind of petroleum wax. It is a flake or acicular crystal obtained from the distillation by solvent refining, solvent dewaxing or by wax freezing crystallization, pressing dewaxing to obtain wax paste, and then by solvent deoiling and refining. Used for the production of high-grade fatty acids, high-grade alcohols, matches, candles, waterproofing agents, ointment, electrical insulation materials, etc.
Crude paraffin is mainly used in the manufacture of matches, fiberboard, canvas and so on because of its large oil content. After adding polyolefin additives to paraffin wax, its melting point is increased, its adhesion and flexibility are increased, and it is widely used in moisture-proof and waterproof wrapping paper, cardboard, the surface coating of some textiles and the production of candles.
After the paper is immersed in paraffin wax, a variety of waxed paper with good waterproof performance can be prepared, which can be used in food, medicine and other packaging, metal rust prevention and printing industry; When paraffin is added to cotton yarn, the textile can be soft, smooth and elastic. Paraffin wax can also be produced detergent, emulsifier, dispersant, plasticizer, grease and so on.
Fully refined paraffin wax and semi-refined paraffin wax are widely used, mainly used as food, oral drugs and some commodities (such as waxed paper, crayons, candles, carbon paper) components and packaging materials, baking containers for dressing, for fruit preservation, electrical components insulation, improve rubber anti-aging and increase flexibility. It can also be used for oxidation to produce synthetic fatty acids.

Paraffin Wax has a wide range of applications and paraffin wax is used in many industries, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food, industry, agriculture and chemistry. The following is the main role of paraffin:
1. Cosmetics and personal care products
Moisturizing effect: Paraffin is mainly used as a moisturizing agent in cosmetics, which can form a protective film on the skin surface to prevent water evaporation and keep the skin moist.
Skin protection: Paraffin is often used as a base ingredient in skin creams, lip balms and lotions to soothe and protect the skin. It relieves dry and cracked skin and helps it heal.
Candles and soaps: Paraffin wax is often used in the manufacture of candles, soaps and other consumer goods, providing good hardness and appearance.
2. Food industry
Food packaging: Paraffin wax is used for food packaging materials, which can provide moisture and corrosion protection. It is often applied to the surface of fruits, vegetables and certain candies to extend the shelf life.
Food coating: Food grade paraffin wax (such as E905) is used to coat fruit, candy, cheese, etc., which has a protective effect and helps keep food fresh.
3. Pharmaceutical industry
Pharmaceutical preparations: Paraffin wax is used as the basic ingredient of pharmaceutical preparations in pharmaceuticals, and is often used to make ointments and external ointments. It contributes to drug stability and adhesion of topical drugs.
Capsule coating: Paraffin wax can be used to coat drug capsules to help delay drug release, or to avoid drug breakdown in the stomach too quickly.
4. Industrial use
Lubricant: Paraffin wax is used as a lubricant in metal processing, plastics industry, textile industry and other fields to reduce friction and extend the service life of equipment.
Waterproof and moisture-proof: Paraffin wax is often used for waterproof and moisture-proof treatment of wood, paper and other materials to increase its durability.
Sealant: Paraffin can be used to seal various products and prevent liquid or gas leakage, especially in food packaging and chemical containers.
Rubber industry: Paraffin is used as a vulcanization accelerator in the rubber industry, which can improve the wear resistance and elasticity of rubber.
5. Agricultural use
Fruit protection: The coating of paraffin on the surface of the fruit can extend the shelf life, reduce water evaporation and microbial growth, and maintain the freshness and appearance of the fruit.
Crop protection: Paraffin wax can be used in certain pesticide preparations as an adhesive and covering layer to help evenly apply pesticides and improve their effectiveness.
6. Paraffin candle making
Candle production: Paraffin wax is one of the most commonly used candle raw materials. It is easy to form, clean when burning, smoke-free, and relatively inexpensive, and is widely used in the production of various types of candles.
7. Anti-corrosion and maintenance
Wood and leather protection: Paraffin wax can be used for wood, leather and other surfaces for anti-corrosion treatment, extending the service life of the material. For example, paraffin wax is used in leather protectants to prevent cracking and fading.
Anti-rust agent: Paraffin wax is used to form a protective film on the metal surface to prevent metal oxidation and rust.
8. Chemical synthesis and catalysts
Chemical synthesis: Paraffin, as a solvent and medium, participates in the synthetic process in some chemical reactions.
Catalysis: In some catalyst formulations, paraffin can be used as an excipient to help catalyze the reaction.
9. Optical materials and wax film
Optical coating: Paraffin wax can be used to coat optical materials, providing a smooth surface, reducing reflection and improving transparency.
Wax film: Paraffin wax can be used to create wax film, which is commonly used for art creation, model making, etc.
