Stearina Vegetale in polvere 55/58°C Cereria San Giacomo

Vegetable stearin powder is the additive that makes plant waxes and paraffin harder and more stable. It raises the melting point of the blend and helps prevent deformation and sagging, especially in heat.

Add 2 to 8% of the plant wax weight, 5 to 10% in paraffin, melting it together with the base wax. As well as giving structure, it increases opacity, brightens colors and makes release from the mold easier. It is ideal for strengthening soft soy waxes such as Golden Wax S41 or for building blends with Golden Wax Y50.

Available in 0.5, 1, 5, 10 and 20 kg packs.

Le temperature in un colpo d'occhio

55–58 °C melting

Melt it together with the base wax and make sure it is fully melted: it melts higher than soft soy waxes.

Highlights
More stable: prevents deformation and sagging, especially in heat.
Harder: raises the melting point of the blend.
Color: increases opacity and vibrancy.
Demolding: helps release from the mold.
How to use
Weigh 2–8% of the plant wax weight (5–10% in paraffin).
Melt together with the base wax at 65–75 °C.
Check that it is fully melted before adding scent.
Test the wick: at high doses one size up may be needed.
Caution
Dull or crystalline surface: dose too high; reduce the percentage.
Wick: at high doses a larger size may be needed.
Documents and safety
CLP label: the wax alone carries no pictograms; the scented candle does, depending on the fragrance. Use the CLP label generator.
Storage: cool, dry place, away from heat and direct light.
