THE STORY OF CHEMKG PARAFFIN
Chemkg Paraffin: The Classic Softening Wax for Smooth, Stable FormulationsA
Chemkg Paraffin is a highly refined, odorless hydrocarbon wax known for its smooth texture, stability, and excellent barrier-forming properties. Widely used in skincare, haircare, and spa treatments, it brings softness, glide, and structural integrity to a wide range of cosmetic formulations.
Carefully Refined from High-Purity Crude Oil Fractions
Chemkg Wax is obtained through the controlled distillation of petroleum, followed by deoiling, filtration, and hydrogenation to remove impurities. This multi-step refining process ensures a high level of purity, consistent melting point, and exceptional stability—qualities required for cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications.
Smooth Texture, Superior Glide, and Reliable Consistency
Chemkg Paraffin functions as an emollient, viscosity enhancer, and structure-building agent.
It improves glide and spreadability, forms a protective film that reduces moisture loss, and helps stabilize balms, ointments, and solid formulations. Its ability to melt gently and reform smoothly makes it ideal for spa paraffin dips, salon treatments, and rich moisturizing products.
Versatile, Stable, and Widely Used in Cosmetic Care
Used in creams, lotions, balms, lip care, hair pomades, massage bars, candles, and spa therapies.
Recommended usage: typically 1–20%, depending on texture and structure requirements.
Store in cool, dry conditions, away from direct heat.
Non-toxic, inert, and compliant with cosmetic-grade safety standards, Paraffin Wax ensures dependable performance across both mass-market and premium formulations.
