Slack wax light grade 30% oil content
General description of slack wax light grade 30% oil content
Slack wax light grade 30% oil is yellow, soft, low melting point product. Slack wax light grade 30% oil content is used in cold weather countries like turkey, Ukraine, Russia. It is a mixture of paraffin wax and oil. since the oil content is higher the price of light slack wax is lower comparing to 10% oil content of the same grade. Sometimes factories do the DE-coloring process on it and export as lower oil grade slack wax.
RAHA Paraffin Company guaranty the quality of slack wax light grade 30% oil content with the arrangement of the international inspector to check quality and quantity of the slack wax light grade 30% oil during the loading to the vessel and controlling the production by QC by batch test report before shipping. RAHA Paraffin Company guarantees the quality to meet with ASTM.
Uses of slack wax light grade 30% oil content
It is used in producing wax emulsions for particleboard and medium density fiberboard, cable filling compound, paraffin wax, matches, candles, rust protective products and moisture vapor barriers.
Packing of slack wax light grade 30% oil content
Because of high oil content, the only way of packing slack wax light grade 30% oil content is new or second hand 180 kg drums, iso tank or flexitanks. in each 20-foot container 110 drums of slack wax can be loaded. drums are steel one and can be new or used according to the customer’s request, the difference of new and used steel drum is 25 USD/MT in the price of the slack wax.
