Paraffin is an odorless colorless and tasteless hydrocarbon compound which is produced from petroleum derivatives. Some people think the only paraffin use is making candles, but there are many paraffin uses. Paraffin can be categorized in two types; paraffin wax ( solid paraffin ) and liquid paraffin ( white oil ). Paraffin wax ( solid paraffin ) is mainly used for candle and match making industries, while liquid paraffin ( white oil ) is mainly used in industrial, hygienic and pharmaceutical industries. In another aspect, paraffin uses are categorized in 3 types; food grade paraffin, industrial grade paraffin and pharmaceutical grade paraffin.
