(Combustion products : carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.)
These are typical of anything that burns. I would like to source the dat=
a
that has been supplied so I can archive it in my own set of known toxic
compounds and carcinogens that I use in my data and research.
>...Monona Rossol has given
information on the decomposition of microcrystalline wax (from petroleum)=
and that it is most hazardous, and most certainly a danger to anyone in
the room while the kiln is giving off fumes, not to mention the vapours
coming off the molten wax while pot-feet are being coated.
Since candle burning is a huge thing in many places and microcrystaline w=
axes
are sometimes used here as well as in polishes I am finding this informat=
ion
disturbing since nothing outside of normal carbon monoxide and dioxide ha=
s
been stated in the past on these items.(That I could turn up) This is a
learning curve for me so anything outside the usual would be a great serv=
ice.
I use lots of wax so my concerns are obvious! Below is a link to the only=
good
site I found on it.
