Useful:

• Description: Microcrystalline paraffin waxes are hydrocarbon waxes derived from the de-oiling of petroleum during the refining process. They consist of small and thin crystal structures, making them more flexible and elastic compared to other waxes. ^[1]
• Categories and Sources: Microcrystalline paraffin waxes are categorized as hydrocarbon waxes and are derived from naturally occurring fossil wax found in petroleum.
• Uses: Cosmetics and Skin Care:; Used in cosmetic formulations, skin care creams, and ointments due to their high melting point and flexibility.; ; Adhesives and Glues:; Employed in glue manufacturing, adhesives, and laminated paper products for their adhesive properties.; ; Food Packaging Recycling:; Utilized in the pyrolysis process to convert metallised food packaging plastics into energy products such as microcrystalline paraffin wax and biogas, along with recovering raw materials like carbon particles and aluminum.^[2]; ; Bamboo Modification:; Applied in the modification of bamboo to enhance its hydrophobicity, dimensional stability, and resistance to mold, improving its performance in construction, furniture, and decoration industries.^[3]
• Production Methods: Produced through the de-oiling of petroleum during the refining process. Industrial production methods involve thermal treatment, mechanical treatment, and chemical treatment to convert waste plastics into energy products and recover raw materials.
