Description

Combined candle composition and candles made therefrom

The present invention relates to a candle composition and combined use of the modeling candle, and more particularly, a model material for the combined use of the candle material, using a hand because the physical properties of the user's body temperature or a little heat is applied to change the physical properties to soften It is possible to express various sculptures, and because it is easy to mix different colors, it is rich in expressive power of color, and due to the addition of antimicrobial agent to the material, it has a cleaning effect because of its high antibacterial activity against germs in the user's hand. The present invention relates to a DIY (Do It Yourself) modeling combined candle composition and candles made therefrom that can satisfy user's satisfaction by using paints and coatings for candles for completeness and preservation of products.

A candle refers to a fuel for lighting in which flammable solids, such as paraffin and beeswax, are melted at a suitable temperature, are molded into a cylindrical shape, and a wick such as cotton is inserted in the center thereof. When the wick is lit, the candle melts and rises along the wick by capillary action to vaporize near the tip of the wick, which burns to liberate carbon and emit light. The material of the wick is also flammable, so it is gradually burned and shortened, so that the thickness of the wick and the rate of consumption of the candle are balanced so that the thickness of the wick should be moderated or treated with a boring solution in advance so as not to burn well.

As described above, the candle is manufactured using paraffin or beeswax as a main material, and other ingredients may be added to improve performance. For example, Korean Patent Registration No. 652174 includes paraffin wax and insect wax obtained from the second larvae of Secondary Larvae (Ericeruspela) as a wax component, and the content of the wax component in the insect wax is It has been presented a technique for a lead-free candle, characterized in that 5 to 60% by weight.

Meanwhile, Korea Patent Registration No. 320327 and No. 567684 are light in weight and hard at room temperature, but they change smoothly when touched by hand and are easy to work, and the model does not sag during work. Therefore, there has been disclosed a wax for making a model that can be used for a school textbook, a sculpture, a circle, a sculpture, and a commercial model and the like, and can be easily modified and reused.

When such a material is used as a candle, it is excessively high temperature and there is a danger to safety, so it cannot be used as a candle. In particular, since the filler melts at a very high temperature, there is a risk that the temperature of the candle may be so high that a user may be burned if the user accidentally touches the body of the candle. In addition, if the proper mixing ratio was not found together with the selection of the appropriate ingredients, the two functions as model making and candles could not be satisfied. Particularly, in the case of the sculpture material, it is necessary to continuously maintain the soft properties so as to continuously deform the model. In the case of using the material disclosed in the patent, the material is hardened after a certain time and there is a problem that no further work is possible. In addition, there was a shortage of functionality such as antibacterial.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a modeling combined candle composition and a candle made therefrom. That is, it is possible to make an animal, human shape of the desired shape like a conventional clay, and to provide a model-made combined candle composition and candles made therefrom that can be used as a candle when plugging the wick.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a model-made combined candle composition and a candle made therefrom having an appropriate blending and composition ratio so that the melting temperature of the candle is similar to a conventional candle so that the user does not burn when the user touches the torso of the candle. will be.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a modeling combined candle composition and candles made therefrom that are easily maintained by maintaining a soft property.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a model-made combined candle composition having antibacterial and other functionalities and a candle made therefrom.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a combined-use candle composition and candles made therefrom that can enhance the completeness and preservation of the preparation.

In order to achieve the above object of the present invention, 1 to 13% by weight of antimicrobial agent, 20 to 32% by weight of microcrystalline wax, 20 to 32% by weight of petrolatum, and 40 to 52% by weight of paraffin wax, combined candle composition To provide.

Conventionally, the candle composition was prepared by adding stearic acid to paraffin wax, but such a conventional candle composition is hardened after making a candle model. In the present invention, while the composition of the microcrystalline wax, paraffin wax, petrolatum during the repeated experiment of the candle material is possible to manufacture the sculpture like Uto, plugging the wick was found to be used as a candle to complete the present invention .

Among the components of the present invention, microcrystalline wax and paraffin wax act as a component acting as a candle, and petrolatum acts as a component capable of producing a model. Particularly, in the case of the present invention, in order to be able to make a model and use it as a candle, it is important to set an appropriate weight ratio of the three components.

In the present invention, as a result of long trial and error, it was confirmed that the microcrystallin wax 20 to 32% by weight, petrolatum 20 to 32% by weight, and paraffin wax 40 to 52% by weight can be used for modeling and candles.

In particular, as the composition ratio, the weight ratio of microcrystalline wax: petrolatum: paraffin wax preferably has a weight ratio of 3: 3: 4. Producing at the above weight ratio shows proper physical properties as modeling and candles.

Comparing the candle composition of the present invention and the material of the Republic of Korea Patent No. 905197, the Patent Registration No. 905197 uses a microstearin Wax having 17 carbons as a fatty acid extracted from palm oil. In the present invention, microcrystalline wax extracted from crude oil was used.

Since the microcrystalline wax used in the present invention is the opposite of the properties of the microstearin wax extracted from the palm, the microcrystalline wax is used as a raw material for the DIY type sculpture material because of its high viscosity and high tenacity. Suitable for

In addition, as shown in the Patent No. 905197, when the candle is prepared in a weight ratio of 1: 1 by weight of microstearin wax: vaseline: paraffin wax, the viscosity of the material is very weak due to the material properties of the micro stearin wax. Since the material itself is strong, it is easily unsuitable as a material for sculpture because of its brittleness.

The combined model candle composition of the present invention may further comprise 0.1 to 5% by weight of a pigment or dye to achieve a variety of colors.

Modeling combined candle composition of the present invention may further comprise 1 to 13% by weight fragrance to give off a good scent.

Modeling combined candle composition of the present invention may further comprise 5 to 17% by weight surfactant. Since the main component of the candle composition is an oil component, the grease does not wash well when washing hands after the operation. The addition of a surfactant facilitates hand washing after the operation.

The present invention also provides a modeling combined candles made of the above-described modeling combined candles composition.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the combined modeling candle can be made by inserting a wick after making a certain model with the combined modeling candle composition.

According to another embodiment of the present invention, the combined modeling candle may be attached to the modeling combined candle composition to the various types of candle models made in advance to complete the model of the candle.

Model-use combined candles of the present invention can be painted on the surface of the candle-only paint, thereby increasing the completeness of the model-made combined candles.

Combined model candles of the present invention can finish the surface using a dedicated acrylic lacquer (lacquer) candles, thereby increasing the robustness and preservation after completion of the combined model candles.

The candle composition of the present invention can be used as a candle of the character model by inserting a candle wick after making a model of a variety of characters, such as animals, people, flowers, etc., can also express various forms of imagination using the candle core In addition, since the user's body temperature or a little heat is applied, the physical properties are changed and the physical properties are softened. Therefore, various sculptures can be expressed by using the hands, and the mixing of different colors is easy.

In addition, the candle composition of the present invention has a blending and composition ratio of the appropriate components, so that the melting temperature of the candle is similar to a conventional candle, so that the user does not burn when touching the body of the candle.

In addition, the candle composition of the present invention by having an appropriate blending and composition ratio, it is easy to maintain the soft properties of the model, making the modeling work easy.

In addition, the composition of the present invention is a natural antimicrobial agent that is harmless to the human body has a high cleaning effect because of the high antibacterial to microorganisms on the user's hand.

In addition, the candle composition of the present invention can meet the user's satisfaction with the preparation by using the paint and coating for the candle only for the completeness and preservation of the preparation.

In addition, since the candle composition of the present invention contains a surfactant, when the hand is washed after the operation, the grease is well washed out and the hand is easily washed.

EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Hereinafter, this invention is demonstrated in detail.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes 1 to 13% by weight of antimicrobial agent, 20 to 32% by weight of microcrystalline wax, 20 to 32% by weight of petrolatum, and 40 to 52% by weight of paraffin wax.

The antimicrobial agent is a substance having an inhibitory effect on bacteria, and all conventional antimicrobial agents may be used, but preferably, phytoncide and a natural antimicrobial agent derived from essential oils are used.

Phytoncide is a substance that plants exhale or secrete to resist pathogens, pests, and fungi. Drinking phytoncide in a forest bath relieves stress, strengthens intestinal and cardiopulmonary function, and also sterilizes. Phytoncide constituents have been found to be phenolic compounds including terpenes, alkaloids, glycosides and the like.

Essential oils include Tea Tree Oil, Clove Oil, Peppermint Oil, Camphor Oil, Campine Oil, Pine Needle Oil, and Juniper Oil. Communis, Spruce and Hemlock Oil, etc. may be used.

In particular, tea tree oil, also known as melaleuca, is derived from a plant called melaleuca alternifolia. This oil has a bactericidal effect, which effectively counteracts bacteria that cause skin defects.

In addition, Pyrethrum (Pyrethrum), Azadirachtin, Quassia, Trichilia, Rotenone, and Lianodine, which have antibacterial / sterilizing effects as plant extracts (Ryanodine), Sabadilla, Ginko Biloba can also be used.

The content of the antimicrobial agent is preferably 1 to 13% by weight based on the total weight of the candle composition. If the amount of the antimicrobial agent is too small, the desired antimicrobial effect may not be obtained, and if too high, the physical properties of the candle may be adversely affected.

Microcrystalline wax is sometimes called microwax for short, but the exact name is microcrystalline wax because it has some crystallinity and strong hardness. It is pale yellow, and is a wax obtained by refining and separating the remaining asphalt (Asphalt) after refining crude oil. Microcrystalline waxes contain many branched hydrocarbons (Branched Alkyl Hydrocarbons). Therefore, it melts at a higher temperature than paraffin wax and has a high hardness. The most distinguishing feature of paraffin wax is that microcrystal waxes are viscous and have opposite physical properties as lubricating paraffin wax. However, when melted, the viscosity is greatly reduced, and it is extremely limited to be used alone as an adhesive. In the case of the micro wax, since the melting point range is wider than that of the paraffin wax, the physical properties may be quite different even for products having similar specifications. The ability to absorb oil is greater than paraffin wax, and the purification method is also different from paraffin wax. The melting point of the microcrystalline wax is 63 to 88 ° C, specific gravity is about 0.9, and the viscosity is 10.2 to 25 cSt (99 ° C). The content of the microcrystalline wax is preferably 20 to 32% by weight based on the total weight of the candle composition.

Vaseline is a jelly-like substance made by refining petroleum and distilling residues. Also called petroleum jelly or paraffin jelly. There are yellow petrolatum and white petrolatum, and there is also an artificial petrolatum made by melting the wax into liquid paraffin. A high boiling point methane-based hydrocarbon having a melting point of 38 to 54 ° C. and a specific gravity of 0.82 to 0.87, which is almost tasteless and odorless. Insoluble in alcohol, glycerin, water, etc., but insoluble in benzene, chloroform, ether, petroleum benzene, carbon disulfide, oil, etc. In addition, the low refining degree is called petrolatum, and there are names such as green, red, unverbale, and snow white depending on the color. Artificial petroleum jelly has physically similar properties but differs in composition. The content of petrolatum is preferably 20 to 32% by weight based on the total weight of the candle composition.

Paraffin wax is the most commonly thought of when we call it wax. The most widely used wax is paraffin wax. Candles are mostly made of this paraffin wax. Paraffin wax is refined from crude oil containing high boiling point lubricating oil and excluding oil component such as lubricating oil. Paraffin wax is linear Alkyl Hydrocarbon due to its molecular structure. According to different kinds. The paraffin wax has a melting point of 47 ° C. to 65 ° C. and is chemically stable. The content of paraffin wax is preferably 40 to 52% by weight based on the total weight of the candle composition.

Among the components of the present invention, microcrystalline wax and paraffin wax act as a component that acts as a candle, and petrolatum acts as a component capable of producing a model. Particularly, in the case of the present invention, in order to be able to make a model and use it as a candle, it is important to set an appropriate weight ratio of the three components. As a result of a long trial and error, it was confirmed that the microcrystallin wax 20 to 32% by weight, petrolatum 20 to 32% by weight, and paraffin wax 40 to 52% by weight can be used for modeling and candles. In particular, the weight ratio of microcrystalline wax: petrolatum: paraffin wax preferably has a weight ratio of 3: 3: 4. Producing at the above weight ratio shows proper physical properties as modeling and candles. In addition, the candle composition of the present invention by having an appropriate blending and composition ratio of the components, such as to maintain a soft property continuously, making modeling work easy.

The combined model candle composition of the present invention may further comprise 0.1 to 5% by weight of a pigment or dye to achieve a variety of colors. As the pigment and the dye, any of those conventionally used may be used. In particular, by using two or more kinds of pigments or dyes with different colors, two or more kinds of candle compositions with different colors, and then by using a variety of two or more candle compositions in one candle model to achieve a visual effect It can be maximized.

In addition, the modeling combined candle composition of the present invention may further comprise 1 to 13% by weight of fragrance to give off a good fragrance. As the fragrance, all conventional fragrances may be used, but natural fragrances such as lavender, rosemary, jasmine, lemon, orange, eucalyptus, spearmint and the like are preferably used.

In addition, the modeling combined candle composition of the present invention may further comprise 5 to 17% by weight surfactant. Since the main ingredient of the candle composition is an oil component, the grease does not wash well when the hands are washed after the work. The addition of a surfactant facilitates hand washing after the modeling work.

Surfactants are substances that adsorb to the interface in dilute solutions to reduce their surface tension. Usually, both lipophilic materials containing both lipophilic and hydrophilic groups in one molecule can be surfactants. Also called a surfactant. Soap is a typical example, and the surface tension of soapy water is much smaller than that of water. Anionic surfactants are ionized in an aqueous solution of the surfactant to become anions. Soaps, alkylbenzenesulfonates, and the like belong to this. In addition, cationic surfactants which are ionized to form cations include higher amine halides, quaternary ammonium salts and alkylpyridinium salts. In addition, both are called amphoteric surfactants, and amino acids etc. belong to this. On the other hand, what is not ionized can also be distinguished as a nonionic surfactant, but polyethyleneglycol etc. belong to this. Surfactants generally have washing power, emulsifying power, dispersing power, osmotic power, foaming power, and the like.

Combined model candles of the present invention can finish the surface using a dedicated acrylic lacquer candles, thereby increasing the robustness and preservation after completion of the combined model candles.
