Sinopec Semi-Refined Paraffin Wax is commonly used in the production of candles, where it provides an excellent balance of hardness and melt point for good candle quality.

Sinopec Semi-refined Paraffin is derived from oil-containing wax by sweating or solvent deoiling, and then by clay refining or hydrofining. Semi-refined paraffin is a slab-like white solid with large output and wide use.

Its relative density increases with the increase of melting point. The product has good chemical stability, moderate oil content, good moisture-proof and insulation properties, and good plasticity. The candle produced by semi-refined paraffin has concentrated flame, smokeless and tearless.

The oil content of Sinopec Semi-refined Paraffin is less than or equal to 2.0%, its refining degree is less than that of fully refined paraffin, and the color of semi-refined paraffin is also darker than that of fully refined paraffin.
