At what temperature can a low temperature candle be lit?

The lighting temperature of low temperature candles is usually between 50-60 degrees Celsius, depending on the wax composition and environmental conditions.

Low-temperature candles use specially formulated wax with a melting point significantly lower than ordinary candles. The ignition temperature of paraffin-based low-temperature candles is usually 50-55 degrees Celsius, and products made of soy wax or beeswax may require 55-60 degrees Celsius to burn stably. The surface temperature of this type of candle can be controlled at 45-50 degrees Celsius when burning. It will not cause burns if it comes into contact with the skin for 1-2 seconds, but a safe distance must still be maintained. When the ambient temperature is below 15 degrees Celsius, the candle may require a higher temperature to ignite, and it is recommended to be used in an indoor environment of 20-25 degrees Celsius. The material of the candle wick will also affect the ignition temperature. Pure cotton wicks are more likely to ignite at low temperatures than wooden wicks.

When using low-temperature candles, ensure good ventilation and keep away from flammable items. The first lighting should last 20 minutes to completely melt the wax pool. People with sensitive skin can test the temperature on the inside of their wrist before use to avoid direct dripping on mucous membranes or wounds. Avoid direct sunlight when storing, as high temperature environments may cause candles to deform. If you find that black smoke or odor is produced when burning, extinguish it immediately and stop using it.
