A wax composition is disclosed, comprising at least 70% triacylglycerols, wherein the triacylglycerols comprise 0.5 to 50 wt. % of C22 fatty acid. A method of preparing a wax composition is disclosed. A candle comprising the wax composition and a method of preparing a candle are also disclosed.
Claims17
A wax composition, comprising at least 70 wt. % triacylglycerols based on the total weight of the composition, wherein the triacylglycerols comprise 0.5 to 50 wt. % of C22 fatty acid based on the total weight of the triacylglycerols and 0.5 to 100 wt. % of partially hydrogenated high erucic rapeseed oil.
A method of preparing a wax composition comprising the steps of:
- a) providing a triacylglycerol comprising 0.5 to 50 wt. % of C22 fatty acid;
- b) mixing the triacylglycerol with 0.5 to 100 wt. % of partially hydrogenated high erucic rapeseed oil;
- and
- c) obtaining the wax composition.
