WhatsappAmong the vast array of paraffin waxes, low melting point paraffin waxes play an important role in industrial production and daily life due to their unique properties. Usually, the melting point of low melting point paraffin wax is between 40℃ – 60℃, and this relatively low melting point gives it unique advantages and a wide range of applications.
Paraffin wax wholesalers play a key role in the market distribution of low melting point paraffin wax. They have established an extensive distribution network to deliver low melting point paraffin wax from refineries to various industries. In order to meet the needs of different customers, the wholesalers not only stock a wide range of low melting point paraffin waxes, but also blend them according to customers’ special requirements. For example, for the food packaging industry, wholesalers provide low melting point paraffin waxes that meet food safety standards to ensure the safety and flexibility of packaging.
The price fluctuation of low melting point paraffin wax is subject to a number of factors. Crude oil price is the basic influence factor, the fluctuation of crude oil price directly changes the production cost of low melting point paraffin wax. At the same time, the production process and purity requirements also play a role in the price, the price of low melting point paraffin wax with higher purity and less impurities is relatively high. In addition, market supply and demand have a significant impact on prices. When seasonal demand increases, such as during the peak season of candle production, the price of low melting point paraffin wax tends to rise. Currently, the market price of low melting point paraffin wax is about 5,000 – 8,000 yuan per ton, depending on the quality and market supply and demand conditions.
Low melting point paraffin wax has a wide range of applications. In the food industry, it is often used for food preservation and packaging. Coated on the surface of fruits, it can form a layer of protective film, slowing down the loss of water and oxidation, and prolonging the freshness of fruits; used in the coating of food packaging materials, it can enhance the moisture resistance and flexibility of the packaging. In the field of candle manufacturing, low melting point paraffin can make candles easier to light and burn more evenly and stably, and it can be used to make candles of various scents and colors by adding different fragrances and colorings. In agriculture, low melting point paraffin wax can be used to make wound healing agent for plant grafting, which can help plants heal wounds quickly and improve the survival rate of grafting.
With the development of technology, the potential value of low melting point paraffin wax in more fields will be explored. In the future, with the changing market demand, paraffin wax wholesalers and producers need to keep innovating to adapt to new market challenges and promote the continuous development of low melting point paraffin wax industry.
