The Wonders of Paraffin and Stearin
Stearin and paraffin are the raw materials used for the production of candles and soaps.
They are products with similar applications but very different properties.
You might be wondering, what is the difference between stearin and paraffin?
Here, we will introduce you to their properties, specifics, and advantages.
Paraffin
What is paraffin and what is it used for?
Paraffin is a solid, semi-transparent substance with no smell or taste, obtained by refining crude oil. It melts at 52-55 degrees Celsius, gradually becoming a sticky, elastic mass with a white color. Paraffin wax is used for making candles, cosmetic creams, pharmaceutical products such as vaseline, for wood impregnation in the manufacture of matches and pencils, crayons, printing inks and paraffin paper making. It is also used for polishing floors, processing leather, and making shoe polishes..
Paraffin as a main component in candle making
The most common use of paraffin is for candle making which makes it a favored material among hobby candle makers.
It is easy to work with, as it becomes liquid and flexible when melted so it can be poured into the desired candle molds. You also need a wick, which you place in the center of the candle. You can add favorite fragrances to your candles – vanilla, chocolate, orange, lemon, cherry, as well as anti-tobacco.
Aromatherapy is a great way to relax for many people. That is why candles with added fragrance are usually more popular.
You can also add various decorations to the candle. Once the paraffin solidifies, it can be shaped into different figures and ornaments on the candle. Additional elements can be glued or attached to the candle as well.
Paraffin in cosmetics and medicine
Paraffin therapies are now applied in many beauty salons. Paraffin treatment relies on the heating effect of paraffin. Paraffin therapy helps regenerate skin, enriches it with collagen and elastin, whitens, moisturizes, and tones. It can be used for manicures and pedicures.
What forms is paraffin available in?
Paraffin is available in different forms – as powder and in pieces. It is available in a wide range of colors too.
The other material used for candle making is stearin. It is also used for soap making.
Stearin
Characteristics
Stearin is a white or yellow fatty substance, produced from vegetable or animal fats. The vegetable type is most often made from palm, coconut, and castor oil. It is biodegradable and can be disposed of safely as waste, without harming the environment. An interesting characteristic of candles made from this material is that they do not drip or smoke.
What is it used for?
- For candles
Stearin is also used for making candles but significantly differs from paraffin.
Advantages of the material
The advantage of stearin is that it does not emit carbon dioxide - CO2 and is suitable for use even by asthmatics. Stearin candles retain their shape when burning up to 60 degrees Celsius and do not smell of oil like paraffin candles.
- For soaps
Stearin is used for homemade soap making.
Making soaps at home is an interesting and beneficial hobby. Hobby soap makers are usually people who value natural cosmetics for its benefits and lack of harmful effects on the skin.
Making your soap at home has many advantages. You can use different molds and add your favorite fragrances. To add a scent to your handmade soaps, you can use ready-made fragrances or essential oils, which will further enrich and hydrate your skin. The variety of essential oils is vast – lavender, orange, cinnamon, mandarin, grape, and whatnot. They will give your homemade soaps a fantastic fragrance.
You can also add some herbs for even more health benefits.
Homemade candles and soaps will be original and memorable gifts. Especially if the person you’re giving them to knows how much effort and time it takes to make these products.
You can impress your friends with scented candles and soaps. Anyone would be charmed by such a gift.
Now that we have introduced you to the characteristics of both materials, you can choose which one best suits your needs.
