Disclosed herein is a Fischer-Tropsch derived paraffin wax comprising paraffins having from 9 to 24 carbon atoms, which Fischer-Tropsch derived paraffin wax has a melting point in the range of 15 to 32°C, wherein the amount of Fischer-Tropsch derived paraffins having from 16 to 18 carbon atoms is at least 85 wt% based on the total amount of Fischer-Tropsch paraffins having from 14 to 20 carbon atoms or wherein the amount of Fischer-Tropsch derived paraffins having from 18 to 20 carbon atoms is at least 10 80 wt% based on the total amount of Fischer-Tropsch paraffins having from 16 to 22 carbon atoms, and wherein the Fischer-Tropsch derived paraffin wax has a kinematic viscosity at 40°C above 3.0 cSt, and a kinematic viscosity at 100°C above 0.5 cSt, and density at 40°C from 0.60 to 0.85 kg/m3. |
