Paraffin wax is a colorless, soft substance generated from coal, petroleum, or oil shale. The dewaxing process removes the wax from crude oil, yielding paraffin wax. Paraffin wax is reprocessed before being used in products. It is made up of hydrocarbon molecules with 20 to 40 carbon atoms. It is water-insoluble and soluble in benzene, ethers, and other ethers. Candles, packaging, the board size, rubber, hot melts, cosmetics, and other uses for paraffin wax are just a few examples. As the popularity of aromatherapy grows, so does the demand for paraffin wax.
