Paraffin: A solid, soft, white or colourless wax with a melting point between 48 and 66 degrees Celsius. Petroleum is converted to paraffin wax by dewaxing light lubricating oils.
Microcrystalline Wax: A wax called microcrystalline wax is produced when petroleum jelly is de-oiled in the petroleum refining process. Commercial grades have melting points ranging from 63°C to 93°C.
Vegetable Waxes: Naturally synthesised from plants or obtained by hydrogenation of natural vegetable oils.
Pure ground wax: Originally made from coal and shale, this is a mineral wax. It is a tasteless, odourless, white crystalline substance.
Small Candle Tree Wax: This wax, also known as halibut wax or halibut wax, is a tough, yellowish-brown to brown wax. This wax is obtained from the leaves of a small shrub.
Synthetic waxes: Synthetic waxes are produced by synthesising hydrocarbon waxes. Fischer-Tropsch/GLT and alpha-olefin waxes belong to this category.
Polyethylene waxes: Ethylene is converted into polyethylene waxes by a polymerisation process. The polymerisation process is modified by the manufacturer in order to produce products with the desired properties.
Amide waxes: These are low molecular weight waxes produced by polycondensation of dibasic acids and diamines. These hard waxes have a light yellow colour.
Investment casting waxes: Often referred to as investment casting or lost wax casting, this is a manufacturing method of creating disposable ceramic moulds using wax moulds.
Anti-Ozoniser Waxes: Anti-Ozonisers are used mainly through blending with petroleum waxes. Waxes mixed into rubber flowers form a protective film on the surface of the rubber.
