Paraffin Wax: Comprised of mostly straight chain Hydrocarbons.  Melting points 120F-160F.

Fully Refined Paraffin Wax (FRP): Paraffin Wax with oil content <0.5%, + 30 color, FDA approvals.

Scale Wax: Paraffin wax 115F-150F melting points. Less than 5% Oil Content, > +10 Color, some FDA approvals.

Microcrystalline Wax:  Petroleum wax that has a larger portion of branched hydrocarbon chains.  Typically more flexible than paraffin waxes and melting point range of 140F-200F

Semi-Refined Wax: Unfiltered waxes that have the same qualities as refined and scale waxes except they are darker in color and lack FDA approvals

Slack Wax:  Unfinished Waxes, higher in oil content 10%-40%.  These waxes may have a distinct petroleum odor.
