Candles are obviously made mainly of wax, but there are many different sorts of wax available. Each wax type has its own qualities and advantages, and each has a very slightly different look and consistency. Most candles on the market presently are made of paraffin, which is a petroleum derivative. However when paraffin candles are burnt they give off hazardous toxins. Nowadays a new candle wax is becoming popular and that is soy candles. Scented soy candles when glowed do not give off dangerous toxins. Soy wax and paraffin wax can be made in many different consistencies, including a soft wax for pot candles and harder waxes for hurricane candles. Many candles fall somewhere midway, with a mid-density paraffin that can be applied in molded candles of all types. It can also be utilized for taper candles, though there is also an unique formula specifically for tapers. Other forms of wax include soy wax, as pointed out earlier, bees wax as well as a new unique palm wax. All of these kinds are celebrated as being more natural, and are superior for the environment. Soy wax, made from soy beans, is a clean-burning wax with an equivalent consistency to the mid-range paraffin waxes. Bees wax is a softer wax, and is prized for its flexibility. Beeswax is often formed into sheets with a honeycomb pattern. Someone purchasing these sheets can then make an instant taper candle by wrapping the soft sheet around a wick and pressing it strongly. One drawback of beeswax however is that it is very expensive. As you can find, soy candles are your best alternative to paraffin wax candles. Candle wicks are available in different sizes that correspond to the diameter of the candle. Larger candles, often candles over six inches in size, need more than one wick. Wicks are made of cotton treated with chemical substances that holds up their burn rate. A wick may consist of only the treated cotton, or it may have a firm core to allow it to remain straighter as it burns. The cores are generally made of either a stiffened piece of cotton, a tightly rolled band of paper, or zinc. Lead candle wicks are not anymore made because of the health dangers with lead. Candle wax is treated with various chemicals to give it the color, stiffness and odor desired. Color usually comes in pigment blocks that can be dissolved into the wax. Fragrance comes in either liquid or solid block form. To produce stiffer candles, Stearine or Vybar is often mixed to increase the burning spell of the candle. Additional effects can be produced with other additives that can make the wax spotted, translucent or give it a snowflake pattern. Changing the wax's additive treatment can greatly change the look of the wax, giving candles the wide range of colors and effects that found on the market today.
