Soy wax production process problems and solutions

Soy wax is a natural vegetable wax. Some problems during the casting and production process cause the finished candles to fail in use. Our Beijing dongke has accumulated production experience in this field and hopes to help everyone avoid these problems.

Problem 1: Candle wick produces mushroom caps or excessive carbon deposits

If the candle wick is too large compared to the container used, the candle flame will be too large and carbon deposits will form and the top of the candle wick will be spongy.

Solution: You need to use a smaller, better suited drill bit

Problem 2: Combustion chamber is too small to tunnel or burn unevenly

Tunneling occurs when the center wire used is too small and the flame cannot adequately melt the entire surface of the candle. This causes the candle to burn unevenly, with a small flame, a faint odor, and the soy wax in the candle going out. So, if you want to know how to burn candles evenly or how to burn candles properly, check out the solutions below.

Solution: The best way to repair the spark plug tunnel is to use a larger core

Problem 3: Glazing on the surface of the finished sail

Solution: Add a small amount of palm wax:

We have found that using a small amount of palm wax on soy wax candles can reduce and remove frost from soy candles. You only need to add 2 teaspoons of palm wax per 1kg of wax. Then use a lower pouring temperature to pour the fully molten material, which will help minimize and eliminate plug freezing.

Question 4: Cut, shrinkage, blisters and wet spots

Sometimes when pouring wax, the adhesion between the soy wax in the candle and the container (sometime called the cup) is poor – bubbles form on the side of the candle. This can be seen most clearly when using a transparent container. It seems that there are bubbles between the container and the soy wax of the candle, which looks a bit like a wet phenomenon.

Solution

Follow the steps below to resolve the issue.

Pouring at low temperature. Note: It’s important to remember to constantly stir the wax as you pour out the cooler to keep it from solidifying.

A dirty surface of the glass jar can also cause this problem, so clean the glass jar before filling with wax if necessary.

Let the candle cool down naturally to room temperature (18-25 degrees), it may take a little longer, but the effect of removing the glass will be transmitted.

Problem 5: Cracks on the surface

Solution:Follow the instructions to fix the problem.

When the wax is full, gently pull out the heart before placing, but avoid overdoing it.

Soft soy wax is the most common wax used for handmade scented candles, but when purchasing, ask if it’s soft container wax or hard soy wax. Soft soy wax is usually used in aromatherapy, which has a soft texture and is more suitable for making cup wax. It is eco-friendly and natural and burns without black smoke. It is a very good practical wax. It is the most affordable on the market today and is also the first choice of many scented candle teachers for candle making.
