The types of paraffin used for candle making include:
1. Solid paraffin (industrial paraffin): This type of paraffin is commonly used to make decorative candles and
ordinary candles. Its melting point is high and it is usually white and shiny.
2. Semi-solid paraffin (crystalline paraffin): This type of paraffin is softer than solid paraffin and is used
for jelly and decorative candles due to its transparency and crystalline properties.
3. Liquid paraffin (liquid paraffin lighting): Mostly used in liquid candles or oil lamps, and it is transparent
and colorless.
4. Odorless paraffin: This type of paraffin is used to make scented candles, as it produces little odor and
smoke.
5. Low smoke paraffin: This paraffin is suitable for smokeless candles, especially for indoor candles.
Each of these paraffins is chosen depending on the type of candle and its application.
