An ester-terminated dimer acid-based polyamide may be blended with a solvent to form a gel. The solvent may be flammable, and a wick may be added to the resulting gel so as to form a candle. Depending on the composition, the candle may be formed into a free standing pillar, or may be better suited to being placed in a container. The solvent may be mineral oil. A solid coating may be placed around the candle, for advantages including to enhance the clarity and/or mechanical stability of the gelled body, and to eliminate the tendency of a gel to have an oily feel and to accept noticeable fingerprints. The ester-terminated dimer acid-based polyamide may also be combined with an active ingredient, such as a fragrance, colorant, insect-repellent, insecticide, bioactive ingredient or the like, to afford a delivery vehicle for the active ingredient.
酯封端二聚酸基聚酰胺可与溶剂混合形成凝胶。溶剂可以是易燃的,蜡烛芯可以加到凝胶中形成蜡烛。根据成分的不同,蜡烛可以形成一个独立的柱子,或者更适合放置在容器中。溶剂可以是矿物油。可以在蜡烛周围涂上一层固体涂层,这样做的好处包括提高凝胶体的透明度和/或机械稳定性,以及消除凝胶体的油腻感和留下明显指纹的倾向。酯封端二聚酸基聚酰胺还可与活性成分(如香料、着色剂、驱虫剂、杀虫剂、生物活性成分等)结合,为活性成分提供输送载体。
