1. Introduction
The commonly used paraffin includes the following grades (according to the melting point): 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, and 70. The fully refined paraffin wax applies to the carbon paper, waxed paper, and radioceramic, etc. The semi refined paraffin wax applies to the candle, crayon, waxed paper, and equipment of telecommunication.
