EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF PARAFFIN WAX POTENTIAL AS A PHYSICAL MODELLING MATERIAL FOR LOCAL ENVIRONMENT
Keywords:
KeywordsAbstract
An experimental stud y on paraffin wax was done to investigate its
potential as modelling material and observing the effect of local
environment thermal parameter. Testing ami analysis done using
cromatographer. differential calorimeter scanner, instron
strength analyzer, durometer and laboratory experimental
equipment have given us the opportunity to clarify certain
elements in understanding the wax characteristics. Wax, through
this experiment. have been proven viable as a modelling material.
The surface finish is fo und to be better than Industrial Design
(ID) clay and stable f or the local environment as long as it is not
exposed to direct heat source such as sunlight.
