Packing of slack wax light grade 10% oil content

Packing slack wax light grade 10% oil content is new or second hand 180 kg drums, ISO tank or flexi tanks.in each 20 foot container 110 drums of slack wax can be loaded . in ISO tank and flexi tank about 20 MT can be loaded . some cusotmers specially Europeans need Iso tank with warmer eqquipment for easy unloading to their factory this kind of packing will add the cost of each MT . cold weather countries need light slack wax with lower melting point .

Uses of slack wax light grade 10% oil content

Slack wax light grade 10% oil is mostly used to produce different grades of paraffin wax by two processes DE-coloring and DE-oiling.Slack wax 10% oil content light grade is also used to produce matches.Slack waxes with oil content below 10% are used for manufacturing of religious candles.Slack wax is the crude wax produced by chilling and solvent filter-pressing wax distillate. There are basically three types of slack wax produced, the type depending on the viscosity of the lube oil being DE-waxed: low neutral, medium neutral and heavy neutral.
