An early meltdown process of wax sweating is provided which enhances the efficiency, quality, product yield, and throughput of wax. In the early meltdown process, slack wax is crystallized. The crystallized was is then sweated while simultaneously draining the liquid drippings from the sweating oven. The congealing point of the liquid drippings are monitored. When the congealing point of the liquid drippings indicate that the melting temperature of the desired wax product has been obtained, swea...

The present invention relates to homopolymer and copolymer waxes which have been prepared by polymerization using metallocene compounds in the presence of hydrogen and have a melt viscosity of less than 100 mPas, measured at 170.degree. C. As a result of their high thermal stability, these waxes display neither discoloration nor crosslinking reactions and are very well suited for use in toners, for plastics processing, for masterbatches, for printing inks, surface coatings and melt adhesives.

This invention comprises a wax candle consisting of a wax insert containing a wick and a surrounding wax jacket. The combustible insert consists of a wax with a melting point between 52.degree. C. and 56.degree. C. and the jacket consists of a wax material with a melting point between 74.degree. C. and 78.degree. C.

A coloration area is provided at least on a surface of a main body whose main constituent is wax. The coloration area is constituted with a coloring constituent which, in turn, has photosensitivity whereby after being irradiated with light, coloration occurs in a state in which there is no light. The coloration area is constituted with a film coated on the surface of the main body, and the film contains the coloring constituent.

Lower alkyl diesters of aliphatic dicarboxylic acids and phthalic acids provide effective mold release agents when added to candle wax compositions in low concentrations.

A wax emulsion is disclosed which upon application to a material forms a film capable of keeping the material water-proof or otherwise protective against ambient influences. The quality of the wax emulsion is improved by the combination of a hydrocarbon wax with a liquid polybutadiene a polybutene or a polyisobutylene.

This tool is used to produce specific patterns in wax on sporting equipment, such as surfboards, sailboards, skis, etc. Primarily, it consists of a hand-held body, having a multiple number of spaced pins or teeth secured to its bottom, which are used to produce the patterns which will provide greater traction for the equipment.

A wax applicator for use in a depilatory waxing procedure. The wax applicator has a body portion (10) with a mounting part (11) for the mounting of the body portion to a wax container (T). A flow passage (13) leads from the mounting part (11) to a narrow elongate outlet (14). Wax can flow from the container (T) along the flow passage (13) to the outlet (14). A spreader (15) is associated with the outlet (14). The spreader (15) has a distal edge located beyond the outlet so that in use wax issuin...

Laminating wax of high adhesive characteristics especially useful in the production of intercalated products is obtained from telomer resulting from a telomerization employing pseudocumene as the telogen and ethylene as the taxogen, the reaction producing said telomer being hereinafter referred to as the telomerization of ethylene on pseudocumene.

A wax injector is used to create the wax mold for use in the investment casting process. The injector utilizes a wax pot to melt and store the molten wax to be injected. A heat exchanger heats the molten wax to its proper injection temperature just prior to injection. A pressure sensor senses when the mold is full of molten wax and shuts the wax valve to ensure proper wax metering. The injector also uses an improved mold clamp to secure and uniformly compress the two halves of the mold. The comp...
