Abstract:
The present invention is a candle composition containing a vegetable lipid base component and a candle formed from the composition. The candle composition may contain up to 100 percent by weight of a vegetable lipid base component. The candle composition may further contain a plant derived crystal modifier.
Abstract:
1. A particular solution must be made that by removing both Oxygen and 2 Hydrogen will form what you want. You may have to hydrogenate double bonds so you can keep removing one oxygen and 2 hydrogen(keep Hydrogen, reform). You may want to use Platinumn. 2.The solution is put in microwave oven to take the place of currents of electrodes(small particles of iron in solution). You can increase the effect by adding powdered iron to solutionnull The microwave oven produces currents in particular solution, removing one oxygen and two hydrogen. 3. Example: Put carbonated water in microwave oven for 5 minutes it will form sugar and have a sweet taste. 4. Example: Put carbonated water and bubble methane through solution, and it will form gasoline. 5. This process could be used to make many chemicals.
Abstract:
Hindered amine compounds which are substituted by a long hydrocarbon chain are useful in a number of applications where the solubility or compatibility afforded by said substitution is needed. This is seen particularly for example with white, dyed, dipped, unscented and/or scented candle wax which is effectively stabilized against discoloration and fading by the incorporation therein of a long chain hindered amine alone or in combination with a UV absorber and/or an antioxidant.
Abstract:
A candle composition has a paraffin wax mixture of a high melting point paraffin wax and a low melting point paraffin wax, and a hydrogenated vegetable oil that is present in a greater amount than the mixture of the varying grades of paraffin wax, and the vegetable oil contains no more than 0.15% free fatty acid, with the remainder being triglycerides. Candles of the composition have good burn characteristics, particularly good fragrance intensity and produce a unique crystallization effect after the first burn.
Abstract:
The present lipid-based wax compositions commonly include a polyol fatty acid ester component (made up of partial and/or completely esterified polyols). Generally, at least a portion of the polyol fatty acid ester has been subjected to a transesterification reaction. Lipid-based wax compositions having a melting point of about 48null C. to about 75null C. can be particularly advantageous for use in forming candles. The wax may contain other components such as mineral wax, plant wax, insect wax, and/or other components. The polyol fatty acid ester component can include triacylglycerols such as those derived from plant oils (soybean oil, palm oil, etc.). The polyol ester component may be characterized based on one or more of its physical characteristics, such as SFI-40, SFI-10, typical crystal structure, IV, melting curve, and/or other properties.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a stabilized fragrance candle composition comprising wax, fragrance and a stabilizing composition comprising a UV absorber and a hindered hydroxybenzoate.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a decorative gel containing crystals that form in situ in the gel from an additive. The additive is an aromatic solid or mixture of aromatic solids and may optionally include an oil-soluble ester that aids solubilization of the aromatic compound(s) in a gel-forming material, while allowing crystallization of the aromatic compound(s) after gelation. The present invention also provides articles of manufacture like candles and sustained release air fresheners containing the gel.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a colored flame candle and manufacture thereof. The colored flame candle according to the present invention comprises a candle body and a candle combustion wick, wherein the candle body comprises a primary combustion agent, a higher fatty acid amide and a higher fatty acid triglyceride as the strength- and flexibility-modifier, a color-forming agent and conventional adjuvant such perfumes and pigments. The colored flame candle according to the present invention has high strength and flexibility, and thus is not easy to be crushed during its manufacture and marketing. Furthermore, the colored flame candle according to the present invention has high flame stability and thus has enhanced quality.
Abstract:
Candles formed from triacylglycerol-based wax are provided. The wax generally has a melting point of about 130 to 145null F. (circa 54 to 63null C.). The wax includes a triacylglycerol component and a polyol partial ester component. Examples of suitable polyol partial esters include fatty acid monoesters of glycerol and/or sorbitan. The triacylglycerol-based wax typically has an Iodine Value of about 20 to 40. The wax commonly includes at least about 70 wt. % of the triacylglycerol component and about 3 to 30 wt. % of the polyol partial ester component. The triacylglycerol component generally has a fatty acid composition which includes about 50 to 70 wt. % saturated fatty acids and about 30 to 45 wt. % 18:1 fatty acids. Methods of producing the candles from the vegetable oil-based wax are also provided.
Abstract:
A triacylglycerol based wax, which may be used to form container candles, is disclosed. The triacylglycerol-based wax includes a triacylglycerol component and a polyol fatty acid partial ester component. The triacylglycerol-based wax typically has a melting point of about 49null C. to 58null C. The triacylglycerol-based wax also generally has an Iodine Value of about 45 to 65. The triacylglycerol component tends to have a fatty acid composition including 5 to 13 wt. % 16:0 fatty acid. Further, the fatty acid composition generally comprises about 45 to 60 wt. % 18:1 fatty acid. The fatty acid composition also generally comprises about 30 to 45 wt. % 18:0 fatty acid. The wax preferably contains little or no paraffin and free fatty acid. The polyol partial ester component is preferably a glycerol monoester of palmitic and stearic fatty acids, and is commonly present as less than about 5 wt. % of the wax.
