This wax is made entirely of rapeseed oil and coconut oil and is blended in Europe. Beeswax, paraffin, soy, palm, and artificial additives are all totally absent. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's 100% plant-based, from a sustainable and renewable source; it's a wax containing no traces of GMOs, without additives, and is not tested on animals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt requires no more than two days to cure and has outstanding cold and hot throw. This is the ideal solution for manufacturers who dislike having a large stock.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpert and superior quality\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduct Specifications\u003cbr\u003eComposition:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e100% plant-based and free of additives, based on rapeseed and coconut vegetable oils.\u003cbr\u003eThis wax is deemed Halal, Vegan-Friendly, Kosher, and free of palm oil, soy, genetically modified organisms, paraffin, and additives.\u003cbr\u003eThe manufacturer offers this recently developed wax in pellet form and packaged in a 20 kg bag. \u003cbr\u003eThe fragrance, which was initially created for high (natural) fragrance levels, plasticizes the wax and lessens its propensity to crack.\u003cbr\u003eThis wax works best with high fragrance loads of about 10–12% and is excellent for wax melts and tea light candles. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe recommended pouring temperature for this wax is between 55 and 60 degrees Celsius, but the maximum temperature for clamshells is 55 degrees Celsius to avoid deforming the plastic. This wax melts at 50 degrees Celsius.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA luxury fragrance company in France selected this wax because it was the only one with the right stability and scent. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe would advise blending it with a softer base wax for non-fragranced or mildly fragranced melts because it is rather hard and brittle on its own and without fragrance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt has undergone extensive testing in poured t-lights and melts, where the smooth crystallization and brilliant white color are valued.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTarts, molds, and T-lights:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally designed to produce 100% vegetable t-lights (which have a very light\/white color), it also had to be palm-free and free of soy and genetically modified ingredients. It is perfect for non-scented t-lights because it has very little color or odor and great stability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExperience has shown that not all fragrances work well with this wax, particularly when benzyl benzoate is used, which can be problematic. Therefore, it is advisable to conduct some testing to determine what works best. The wax is going to crumble. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe most popular application for the organic compound benzoyl benzoate is as a plasticizer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBenzyl benzoate is frequently found in fragrances, either as a natural component of the essential oils used in the fragrance or as a synthetic additive used as a fixative to help preserve the fragrance's longevity. Additionally, this ingredient is used in medicine to treat certain skin conditions topically.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"High-end\" clients who require a base wax with a neutral odor and excellent oxidation stability, such as fragrance houses and candle makers, would find this wax appealing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTesting revealed that it has a high melting point of 50 degrees Celsius.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eRecommendations \u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn general, lower pouring temperatures seem to be better; for this wax, 55-60°C is recommended. It's sometimes necessary to heat the wax to higher temperatures initially to incorporate colors, fragrances, or other waxes. But let it cool down to no less than 5ºC before pouring it into plastic clamshells. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt would be best to resist pouring the wax immediately and let it cool slightly (with gentle stirring if needed), as this will yield the best results with less risk of frosting and surface defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.cargill.com\/bioindustrial\/naturewax-specifications\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow to take the vegetal mold of the silicon mold \u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaking vegetable wax molds out of silicone molds can be a delicate process to prevent breakage or damage.
