Paraffin wax is mainly refined from heavy slack wax, which is a mixture of oil and wax, a byproduct from the refining of lubricating oil. So usually they have higher melting point.
Regularly sold Paraffin Waxes have 3-5% or 1-2% oil content.

When most people think of wax, in any form, the wax they generally think of is probably a paraffin wax. It is one of the most plentiful and multi-use waxes used today. A by-product of the crude oil refining process, in its raw form, it is a white, odorless, tasteless, "waxy" solid, with a typical melting point between about 110°F to 150°F, and while it's very inert, it burns really well.
Pretty much any type of candle can be made with paraffin wax. The melting point is the primary determinant of the type of candle you can make with it & Paraffin wax, classified as a chemical preservative, is widely used on fruits, vegetables, and candy to make them shiny and pretty as well as to retard moisture loss and spoilage. Waxes are made from vegetable oils, palm oil derivatives, and synthetic resins, as well as other materials. Some people, notably those who are allergic to aspirin, may be sensitive to many waxes, depending on their ingredients.
