Residue Wax (Foots Oil) Definition

Residue Wax (also known as Foots Oil) is the oil extracted form Slack wax in the process of producing Paraffin wax. Foots Oil contains a high percentage of oil and, based on the oil content, can be found as a liquid or semi-solid in the room temperature. The oily nature of residue wax makes this product applicable as a lubricant in industrial environments. Resides Wax (aka Foots Oil) is a by-product derived from Slack Wax. The greasy nature of Foots Oil along with relatively cheap price, have made this material a suitable substitute in industrial applications.

Residue wax is the mixture of oil and slack wax. This wax, formally known as Foots oil is a commodity derived from the production of semi refined paraffin wax, having almost 60% result from 100% of slacks provided by the oil refineries.

 Application of Residue Wax (Foots Oil)

Residue wax, despite its lower quality compared to fully refined waxes, still finds several applications in various industries:

1. Candle Making: Residue wax is often used as a component in candle manufacturing, especially for utility candles where appearance is less critical. It helps provide structure and substance to candles.
2. Adhesives: Due to its adhesive properties, residue wax is utilized in the formulation of adhesives, particularly in hot melt adhesive formulations where clarity is not a concern.
3. Coatings: In industries such as textiles, paper, and packaging, residue wax is employed in coatings to provide moisture resistance, improve surface properties, and enhance printability.
4. Woodworking: Residue wax can be utilized in wood treatments and finishes to provide a protective layer against moisture and to enhance the appearance of wood surfaces.
5. Rubber Processing: In the rubber industry, residue wax may be used as a processing aid or release agent during the manufacturing of rubber products.
6. Polishes and Sealants: It can be incorporated into formulations for polishes and sealants used on various surfaces, including wood, leather, and metal, to provide protection and shine.
7. Corrosion Protection: Residue wax is sometimes applied as a rust inhibitor or corrosion-resistant coating on metal surfaces, particularly in industrial and marine applications.

Packing of Residue Wax

Foots Oil packing is in steel drums new or used to avoid any leakage during transportation. new drum cost is so high that is not economic to be used for packing of wax which is the residue of paraffin wax producing and is considered as the cheapest product of the wax producing process. Used drums are washed to be clean enough to be filled with an oily product. ISO tank and flexitank are not used for wax because it is oily enough to be unloaded without heating it and again it is not economic to use these luxury packing for this wax.
