Road Marking Paint

Petroleum waxes and atactic poly alpha olefins function as fillers and binders in thermoplastic road marking paints and tapes.

Some producers also sell intermediate" wax, the boiling range cut where the transition in crystal size and structure occurs. Petroleum wax producers also characterize wax by degree of refinement: fully refined paraffin has oil content generally less than .5%, and fully-refined micro-crystalline less than 1.5% slack wax - precursors to the fully refined versions in either case would have oil content above 2 and as high as 35% by weight.  

Paraffin wax produced from petroleum is essentially a pure mixture of normal and Iso-Alkanes without the esters, acids, etc.

Found in the animal and vegetable-based waxes. Micro crystalline wax contains substantial proportions of branched and cyclic saturated hydrocarbons in addition to normal Alkanes. sales3 at paraffinco dot com.
