Chemical Composition Of Floor Wax

The chemical process used in refining crude oil results in three different types of petroleum based candle waxes being produced per the international group inc.

Chemical composition of floor wax.

The wax prevents the plant from losing excessive amounts of water. The aqueous emulsion composition of the present invention is completed to the final product floor polish composition by addition of general additives for a floor polish composition. A wax is a simple lipid which is an ester of a long chain alcohol and a fatty acid. A wax refiner and processor.

Once polymerized the polymer used for the floor wax is suspended in water creating polymer emulsions. The cuticular wax was composed of alkanes olefins fatty acids alcohols aldehydes esters and terpenoids. Waxes are found in nature as coatings on leaves and stems. Four different kinds of floor polish prepared by mixing molten candle wax in paraffin wax.

Treatments differ in amount of candle wax dissolved in paraffin to make the polish. The alcohol may contain from 12 32 carbon atoms. Although the chemical composition of the wax is always carbon and hydrogen the actual number of atoms will vary based on the exact origin of the wax. 4 g candle wax 20 ml paraffin b.

High humidity maintained the content of total wax alkanes and aldehydes at sufficient levels especially c 29 alkane and c 18 aldehyde which could positively regulate the quality of the pear fruits. 12 g candle wax 20 ml paraffin d. 8 g candle wax 20 ml paraffin c. The present application provides an aqueous floor wax composition which comprises based on the total weight of the composition a 25 55 wt of a polymer emulsion the solid content of which is 8 wt 30 wt b 5 15 wt of a wax emulsion the solid content of which is 0 8 wt c 12 wt of an alkali soluble resin emulsion the solid content of which is 0 3 wt d 2 15 wt of a.

A typical alkane paraffin wax chemical composition comprises hydrocarbons with the general formula c n h 2n 2 such as hentriacontane c 31 h 64. The degree of branching has an important influence on the properties. Paraffin waxes are mixtures of saturated n and iso alkanes naphthenes and alkyl and naphthene substituted aromatic compounds. 16 g candle wax 20 ml paraffin four planks.
