1. Application in the field of packaging. Paraffin can improve the finish, toughness and printing quality of packaging materials, while reducing production costs. Therefore, it is often used as papermaking sizing agent and waterproof and oil-proof coating.
2. Application in industrial and agricultural fields. Paraffin is widely used in rubber, textile, investment casting, plastics and electronics industries. It can be used as rubber antioxidant, softener, toughening agent and release agent, and can also be used as gloss finishing agent, softener, batik anti-stain agent and water-repellent burying agent for textiles.
3. Application in the field of medicine. The most widely used Chemicalbook in the field of medicine is liquid paraffin. Liquid paraffin is an oily organic matter with strong cohesion, insoluble in water, and can not saponify, with good transparency, easy flow, no biological toxicity, and similar to the performance of biological glue.
4. Application in the field of construction. Among building materials, phase change paraffin is mainly used in phase change energy storage gypsum board, phase change energy storage concrete, building thermal insulation materials, phase change energy storage mortar and phase change heat storage floor and ceiling.
5. The properties of paraffin phase change materials have broad application prospects in thermal infrared camouflage and thermal infrared false targets.
