Stearin for the production of candles 1511901900

stearin is a solid bead-shaped product (microgranules, see photo), white, odorless, vegetable origin, does not dissolve in water and ethanol.

The melting point of refractory stearin is about 60 В° C (at least 59 В° C).

Adding this stearin to the candlestick composition gives the following results:

1 / increase the melting point of the candle . Stearin has a higher melting point than technical grade paraffin, so adding stearin will increase the melting point of the candle, which will entail:

2 / increase thermal stability, ensure dimensional stability and reduce slippage and increase mechanical strength. strong > improve candle color and preserve color over long-term storage . Since the use of paraffin with a relatively high oil content causes aging, deterioration of the color of the candles during storage.

5 / makes it easy to remove the candle from the shape.

The resulting candles are straight, smooth and shiny.
