What is Paraffin?
Paraffin, commonly known as paraffin wax, is a colorless, odorless, soft solid extracted from petroleum during the refining process. It is composed of saturated hydrocarbons and exhibits excellent waterproofing, lubrication, and insulation properties.
Paraffin wax is widely used in candle manufacturing, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, packaging, food coating, rubber processing, textile finishing, and waterproofing materials. Its high melting point, chemical stability, and ease of processing make it an essential industrial raw material. The demand for paraffin wax continues to rise due to its applications in household goods, industrial processes, and personal care formulations.
Market Trend and Drivers of Paraffin:
The paraffin market is expanding due to increasing consumption in candle manufacturing, packaging industries, and personal care products such as creams, balms, and lotions. The growth of aromatherapy and spa industries has also boosted demand for high-quality paraffin wax.
In industrial applications, paraffin is used extensively as a lubricant, electrical insulation material, and moisture barrier. Growth in petrochemical production and rising demand from emerging markets contribute significantly to global paraffin consumption. Additionally, advancements in extraction and refining technologies have improved product quality, creating new opportunities in pharmaceutical and food-grade applications.
