Soy Candles by Intrigue Online Store
The candles were used by people in a very long time, but there is no historical record of the candles used by first time by the man. In those days, and candles today is commonly used for lighting, heating, decoration, and celebration. The first Chinese and Japanese candles were made with wax from insects and native seeds molded in paper tubes. Wax skimmed boiling cinnamon candles is the base for the use of the temple in India. Native Americans burned oily fish (candela) nailed to a wooden fork.
Soy wax is produced form soybean oil but may contain other soy ingredients. Soybean oil is separated from the solids, solvent extraction or by mechanical pressing. This crude oil is then further refined and bleached. About 60 kg of soybeans are required to produce 10 kg of soybean oil. Soy solids, which remain after oil extraction can be used as livestock feed.
The main step in making soy wax is hydrogenation. Hydrogenation is the process whereby the poly-and oils Monounsaturated solidify in order to increase viscosity. This is done by the reaction of hydrogen with the oil at elevated temperatures (140-225 ° C) in the presence of a nickel catalyst. It is important to stir the mixture to help dissolve the hydrogen and to achieve a uniform distribution of catalyst with the oil. The hydrogenation process will create saturated fats (the double bonds become single bonds) are not very healthy for human consumption because it contains trans fats.
Hydrogenation soybean oil produced only a wax with low melting texture and not so solid. Fragrance oils and dyes often added to soy candles. Scented Soy wax, which is very popular, can contain up to 10% fragrance oil, which are readily miscible with wax.
Soy candles are the best to use, because they come of a plant, which is not toxic, and are 100% biodegradable. Soy candles burn 40-50% more, and burns at a lower temperature than paraffin, which makes them much more sure. Soy candles are also easy care and cleaning. Even more these candles do not increase the level of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, making them more attractive to environmentally conscious people. Compared to paraffin candles, their non-toxic nature causes fewer allergies.
