Natural wax YCC 731
This wax is a blend of premium quality natural waxes and is specially developed for the production of cast candles. It is biodegradable and environmentally friendly. No animal products were used and no animal testing was conducted in its manufacture.


Work space and conditions
Conditions are important for a consistent result, so we recommend room control
temperature and humidity. The room temperature should be 22-26 ° C. The relative humidity should be
maintained at a low level of 20-40%. Airflow should be minimal, with no direct exposure of the candle surface.

Melting and casting
YCC 731 wax is specially designed for creating candles in silicone molds and forms. The pouring temperature should be between 55°C-60°C, depending on the geometry of the mold.

Avoid heating above 75°C . These temperatures can lead to wax discoloration, poor adhesion, and cracking when removed from molds. Be sure to stir constantly and mix the wax even while it is melting. After melting, allow the wax to cool to ~60°C-68°C, add the fragrance, and mix well until the wax reaches ~55°C.

Pouring temperatures can vary depending on the type and size of the mold, the fragrance and colorant used, and the effects the candle maker wants to achieve. It is recommended to preheat the mold to 45 - 50 °C. The fragrance should be added and mixed immediately before pouring, around 60 °C. If you experience difficulty with the pouring temperature, try a lower or higher temperature in increments of 5 - 10 °C.


Wicks
Given the sector for which YCC731 wax will be used, it is recommended to use unwaxed, cotton wicks. Following our tests, both TCR and SLT wicks were compatible with the wax.
If you notice a weak or unstable flame, try a different type of wick. Test burning should be done 48 hours after casting.

dies
The molds should be clean and free of contaminants. They should be at least room temperature, although preheating them to 45°C-50°C can yield some amazing results. Warm ambient temperature (20°C), heated container and prevention of rapid temperature changes during cooling will reduce the likelihood of polymorphism/freezing.


Dye
You can use liquid candle dyes or solid candle dyes specifically formulated for soy wax.Bekro dyes are perfect for this type of wax. Test carefully to find the right color concentration for you. Natural waxes require higher amounts of dye compared to paraffin wax. Mix the color for at least 30 seconds


Perfume
YCC 731 candle wax can hold up to 8% fragrance oils ; ( not tested with essential oils ). Keep in mind that being a 100% vegetable product, burning and removal from the mold can be influenced by any product added to the mixture (no. fragrance, colorant). Some fragrances can react negatively with the wax causing unwanted effects such as: defective surface, discoloration, reduced burning, breakage when removed from the mold.
