Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a wax composition for the manufacture of candles in containers. Said invention extends to the method for manufacturing these candles, as well as the candle thus obtained.
  • the field of the invention is that of the waxes used in the mechanized manufacture of candles provided with a container.
  • this manufacture provides for an initial container (made of glass and the like, preferably transparent) to be filled with wax poured in the molten state around a wick, also accommodated inside said container.
  • the production cycle is then completed by cooling of the wax, so that it hardens, and packaging of the end product.
  • a feature of the manufacture of candles in containers at present is the low productivity of the plant, due to the time that is normally necessary to allow the wax to set, without such irregularities appearing on the surface of the product as to make it unacceptable for the market.
  • the principal object of the present invention is therefore to provide a wax composition for the manufacture of candles in containers, able to reduce or even eliminate the deformations present on the surface of the end product, whilst maintaining the same hourly production rate of the system.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a wax composition of the aforementioned type that makes it possible to increase the production rate of the plant, without the occurrence of the above mentioned irregularities on the surface of the candle.
  • Yet another object of the invention is to provide a wax composition for candles that makes it possible at the same time to achieve a high production rate and mechanized packaging of the end product, directly at the end of the production line.
  • the wax composition according to the present invention for manufacturing candles in containers of the type made up of a mixture of paraffin wax and at least one microcrystalline wax, this composition being characterized essentially in that it consists of a microcrystalline wax having a penetration value of at least 60 ddm.
  • This microcrystalline wax preferably has a penetration value of 70 ddm and is present in the composition in a ratio of one part in weight to 18-24 parts in weight of said paraffin wax.
  • Said microcrystalline wax is advantageously a "MULTIWAX W 835" ® wax.
  • said wax composition comprises, in a mixture: INGREDIENT % WEIGHT Microcrystalline wax 3.5-5 Penetration 60 ddm Perfumed essences 5-8 Colouring agents 0.1-0.5 Colour stabilizing agent 0.2 - 0.4 Paraffin wax q.s. to 100 Melting point: 50-54°C and, preferably: INGREDIENT % WEIGHT Paraffin wax 88.3 Melting point 50-54°C MULTIWAX W 835 (Penetration 70 ddm) 4.5 Perfumed essences 6.7 Colouring agents 0.25 Colour stabilizing agent 0.25
  • the method for the manufacture of candles in containers, which also forms the subject matter of the present invention, obtained with the above composition is characterized essentially in that it provides for an hourly production that is higher than 4,500 candles in containers and is advantageously 5,400 pieces/hour.
  • this procedure provides for a wax cooling time of 15 min at the temperature of 10°C and mechanized packaging of the product at the end of the production line.
  • the wax composition of the invention allows cooling times to be reduced and mechanized packaging of the end product directly at the end of the production line, that is, without the traditional pause of said product in a different environment for setting and solidification of the wax.
  • the wax composition according to the present invention consists of a mixture of a paraffin wax with at least one particular microcrystalline wax.
  • microcrystalline waxes defines some mixtures of hydrocarbons of high molecular weight, mostly belonging to the aliphatic series (C n H 2n+2 ) and, to a lesser extent, of the olefinic series (C n H 2n ).
  • microcrystalline waxes in general in the manufacture of candles in containers has already been known for a long time.
  • the compositions in which these microcrystalline waxes are used do not permit the advantageous results obtained with the present invention.
  • the conventional compositions of the type being examined in fact, give an end product that is still excessively damaged, and therefore not suitable to be put on the market, even at production rates as low as 3,000 pieces/h (that is, still at relatively low hourly production rates).
  • this microcrystalline wax preferably has a penetration value of 70 ddm and it advantageously consists of a "MULTIWAX W 835" wax, a registered trademark of WITCO Inc. (USA).
  • the microcrystalline wax having the above mentioned properties is added in a mixture to a paraffin wax, preferably with a melting point of 50-54°C (for example, an AGIP 122 paraffin wax from AGIP PETROLI SpA), possibly also in the presence of perfumed essences, colouring agents and colour stabilizing agents (for example, "UVINOL 3008" stabilizer, a registered trademark of BASF Co., USA).
  • a paraffin wax preferably with a melting point of 50-54°C
  • perfumed essences, colouring agents and colour stabilizing agents for example, "UVINOL 3008" stabilizer, a registered trademark of BASF Co., USA.
  • This composition is normally made up of 18-24 parts in weight of paraffin wax to one part in weight of microcrystalline wax.
  • the complete composition presents the following quantitative values for the ingredients in the mixture: INGREDIENT % WEIGHT Microcrystalline wax 3.5-5 Penetration 60 ddm Perfumed essences 5-8 Colouring agents 0.1 - 0.5 Colour stabilizing agent 0.2 - 0.4 Paraffin wax q.s. to 100 Melting point 50-54°C
  • the wax composition is made up of: INGREDIENT % WEIGHT Paraffin wax 88.3 Melting point 50-54°C MULTIWAX W 835 (Penetration 70 ddm) 4.5 Perfumed essences 6.7 Colouring agents 0.25 Colour stabilizing agent 0.25
  • the following wax composition was prepared for the manufacture of candles in containers, in which a conventional microcrystalline wax with a low coefficient of penetration was employed: INGREDIENT TYPE % WEIGHT Paraffin wax AGIP 122 88.3 Microcrystalline wax S&R (13 ddm) 4.5 Essence Berry 6.7 Colour Blue 0.25 Stabilizing agent UVINUL 3008 0.25
  • the following wax composition was prepared for the manufacture of candles in containers, in which a MULTIWAX W 835 microcrystalline wax with a penetration value of 70 ddm was used: INGREDIENT TYPE % WEIGHT Paraffin wax AGIP 122 88.3 Microcrystalline wax MULTIWAX W 835 4.5 Essence Berry 6.7 Colour Blue 0.25 Stabilizing agent UVINUL 3008 0.25
