Kerven Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Without the fancy lab equipment and manual testing of blends, is there a method to get a ballpark melt point for a blend consisting of ingredients with differing melt points? For example, if I made a blend of 50% castor wax (180F melt point) and 50% coconut oil (92F melt point), is there a formula that could be used to calculate the melt point of the resulting wax blend?

birdcharm Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I'm no math wizard, but wouldn't that be like when you average something? 180 + 92 = 272 divided by 2 = 136 ... ??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerven Posted October 22, 2017 Author Share Posted October 22, 2017 I thought that at first but... is it that simple? My inner skeptic wasn't sure. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
