Detailed Project Report on paraffin wax from slack wax (by deoiling crystallization and hydrofinishing)

PARAFFIN WAX FROM SLACK WAX
(BY DEOILING CRYSTALLIZATION AND HYDROFINISHING)
[CODE NO 3466]  

Slack wax is petroleum product; the raw material of paraffin wax, Slack wax is a mixture of oil and wax in yellow or brown color, processed by pressing to decrease the oil content and discoloring by special powders after heating to produce paraffin wax.Slack wax verifies from light to heavy grades based on its melting point. Melting point 50-52 C is categorized in light grades and 53-55 C is heavy grade .All the types of slack wax are used as blending components or waterproofing agents in the manufacture of various industrial products.

Hard Paraffin Wax, also known as paraffin wax, is a white to an off-white crystalline purified mixture of solid hydrocarbons derived from petroleum. Paraffin wax is ideally suited for the manufacture of premium quality candles, cosmetic creams & pharmaceutical ointments, petroleum jelly, and as a general purpose lubricant in industry.
