What Is Industrial Liquid Paraffin?

Industrial liquid paraffin is a high-purity, refined mineral oil derived from petroleum. It is odorless, colorless, and chemically stable, making it suitable for a wide range of manufacturing processes. Due to its inert nature, industrial liquid paraffin does not react with most materials, ensuring consistent performance in industrial applications.

Physical and Chemical Properties

• Appearance: Clear, transparent liquid
• Odor: Odorless
• Purity: Typically 99% or higher
• Viscosity: Available in different grades to match application needs
• Density: ~0.83–0.88 g/cm³ at 20°C
• Boiling Point: Above 300°C
• Solubility: Insoluble in water, soluble in organic solvents

Types and Grades

Industrial liquid paraffin is generally categorized into:
• Light Liquid Paraffin: Lower viscosity, suitable for applications requiring easier flow and spreadability.
• Heavy Liquid Paraffin: Higher viscosity, ideal for processes where a thicker, more stable lubricant or coating is needed.
Both types are available in technical and industrial grades, depending on the purity and performance requirements of the end use.

Industrial Applications of Liquid Paraffin

Industrial liquid paraffin is widely used in:
• Plastics and Polymer Manufacturing – as a lubricant and processing aid in PVC and other plastics production.
• Rubber and Tire Industry – to improve elasticity and processing efficiency.
• Textile and Leather Processing – as a softener, lubricant, and finishing agent.
• Metalworking – for cutting, drilling, and machining lubrication.
• Cable Manufacturing – as a protective and insulating agent.
Its stability, non-reactive nature, and cost-effectiveness make it a preferred choice across multiple industrial sectors.
