LIGHT SLACK WAX
INTRODUCTION of LIGHT SLACK WAX
Light Slack Wax is a sort of slack wax that is produced in a manner that is generally similar to that of other types of slack wax, with just a few minor differences in the refining and refining process. One of the byproducts that is left behind after Lubricant has been converted into Base Oil is called Slack Wax. As a result of this process, a solvent is used in order to first separate the aromatic compounds from the Lubcat; the product that is obtained after this step is referred to as raffinate. By extracting the paraffinic components from the raffinate in the next step, base oil is produced. During this procedure, a byproduct known as slack wax is produced. Slack wax is often utilized in the production of paraffin.
The melting point is one of the factors that helps differentiate between light and heavy grades of slack wax. The melting point ranges from 50 to 52 degrees Celsius for light grades of slack wax, while the melting point ranges from 53 to 55 degrees Celsius for heavy grades of slack wax.
Slack Wax is a paraffin wax and oil combination derived from petroleum crude oil. Between 5% and 30% of Slack Wax is oil. It is also known as Raw Material of Fully Refined Paraffin Wax and Semi Refined Paraffin Wax. Based on Oil Content, Petronaft Company offers the following varieties of SW Light: (The table of technical specifications of each will be presented in the following).
Slack wax light 5% oil content
Slack wax light 10% oil content
Slack wax light 30% oil content
Every technical aspect of the Light Slack Wax we provide is subject to very rigorous controls. It is generally agreed that the regulating procedure is the single most important part of the job. These processes for monitoring are quite specific and difficult to understand. We are very aware of the importance of the step involving filtration. As a consequence of this, a high degree of precision is accomplished at this step by using high-tech tools. Petronaft’s Light Slack Wax is produced in a purest form and at a particular melting temperature. There is no evidence that anything is deteriorating or fading away while the melting is taking place.
Petronaft exports the highest-quality Slack Wax Light in different grades from Iran, Turkey, and the UAE to other countries around the world.

Applications of LIGHT SLACK WAX
Slack wax light can be used in the production of a wide variety of goods for the industrial sector, including but not limited to: candles, polish, matches, ink, and carbon paper.
- The textile industry also needs light slack wax in order to function properly. For the purpose of providing thermal insulation and safeguarding particular materials that have specialized purposes, it is advised that paraffin wax and slack wax be used.
- Dust-controlling agents and controlled release components found in chemical fertilizers
- The production sectors of insulating materials and glass wool products.
- The manufacture of paraffin wax begins with the creation of light slack wax, which serves as a forerunner to the production of paraffin wax.
- Paraffin emulsions are made with it as well; therefore, it has several applications.
We provide Slack Wax Light of the best quality in a variety of grades and export them from Iran, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates to other nations worldwide.

- Slack Wax Light Turkey
- Slack Wax Light Emirates
Packing of LIGHT SLACK WAX
Slack wax is packed in bags for lower oil grades (5% to 15%), but for higher oil contents like light slack wax (30%), the only packing is steel drums, ISO tanks, or flexi tanks to avoid leakage.
