Wax melters are used in the packaging and candle making industries. The type of tank used to melt candle wax is quite different from solder and tar, especially organic waxes like soy, for making scented and colored candles. For example, tanks used for adhesives may need to be heated up to 〔()〕 whilst an organic soy wax will be ruined at over and should never be heated above . A delicate soy wax used to make candles would be destroyed and burned if not heated in an even manner at lower temperatures than solder or tar. Also, since soaps and candles are scented and coloured, tanks designed for melting these substances need to be specially polished to ensure there is no contamination between different scented/coloured candles or soap. For this reason, there are melting tanks that are specially coated for candle wax melting. ==Types== Wax melters, such as melting tanks, are generally classified as either 'direct heating' or 'water jacket heating'. A third type is known as the convection melter. A water jacket melter is generally preferred if more than 40 litres or so are to be poured. A melter should be polished and have a coating to prevent cross contamination if heavily scented or coloured substances are to be used. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wax melter」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
