The difference between oiled paper and wax paper
2025-07-29
I.Different raw materials
Oiled paper is made from cotton fibers as raw materials through processes such as soaking, scraping and applying oil, and drying. Wax paper is made from raw materials such as wax, cellulose and wood fibers.
II.The manufacturing processes are different.
The production of oiled paper involves multiple steps such as soaking, scraping and applying oil, and drying, making the process rather complicated. Wax paper, on the other hand, requires melting wax and other raw materials at a certain temperature and then soaking them in the paper. It has a high production efficiency and relatively low cost.
III.Different characteristics
Oiled paper has certain oil resistance and water resistance, but it has poor moisture resistance, is prone to hardening, and will produce a rather pungent smell when burned. Wax paper has better properties such as water resistance, rust prevention, oil resistance and moisture resistance, and can also be used for packaging food and other aspects.
IV.Different uses
Due to its unique properties, oiled paper is usually used to make packaging products such as cigarette butts, ink bottles, pencils and handbags, and can also be used in fields like waterproofing and heat insulation. Wax paper is widely used in fields such as medical care, food, and electronics, especially in the field of food packaging, where it has a broad range of application scenarios.
V.The degree of environmental protection varies
Oiled paper contains plasticizers and other chemical substances, causing significant environmental pollution and having a short service life. The raw materials for wax paper are all derived from natural plants. After burning, it will not cause pollution and can be reused multiple times, thus having good environmental friendliness.
In conclusion, both oiled paper and wax paper are traditional handcrafted packaging materials. Although they share many similarities, there are also many differences between them. When making a purchase, it is necessary to comprehensively consider its characteristics and uses based on the actual usage scenarios and requirements, and select the packaging materials that suit you.
