Abstract

Background: There are many aromatherapy options on the market, one of which is in the form of aromatherapy candles. Aromatherapy candles are made using several ingredients and use essential oils that have an aromatherapy scent, a combination of red rose and white rose essential oils. These essential oils are used not only for the treatment and prevention of disease, but also for their effects on mood, emotions, and a sense of well-being. Method: In this experimental study, a comparative test was carried out between 5 concentration variations of red rose and white rose essential oils with F1 = 1%:5% ; F2= 2%:4% ; F3= 3%:3% ; F4= 4%:2% ; and F5= 5%:1%, using the same basis. Then an evaluation was carried out by testing the physical quality of the candle aromatherapy preparations which included organoleptic tests, melting point tests, burn time tests, and hedonic tests. Result: The organoleptic test on formulas 1 and 5 produced an even color, no cracks and a characteristic odor, but in formulas 2,3 and 4 the color was uneven and there were depressions. In the melting point test, all formulas are within the standard candle time range, namely 540C, the average burn time test is not more than 2 hours and the preference test is on formula 5. Conclusion: The final result is a formula that meets all testing standards, namely 5%:1% formula 5, in which the ratio of essential oils of red roses and white roses is and the ratio of paraffin and stearic acid is 54%:40%.

红玫瑰（杂交玫瑰）和白玫瑰（阿尔巴玫瑰）精油混合香薰蜡烛的配方和物理质量测试

背景：市场上有许多香薰疗法的选择，香薰蜡烛就是其中之一。香薰蜡烛由多种成分制成，并使用具有香薰气味的精油，即红玫瑰和白玫瑰精油的组合。这些精油不仅可用于治疗和预防疾病，还能对情绪、情感和幸福感产生影响。研究方法在这项实验研究中，使用相同的基础，对红玫瑰精油和白玫瑰精油的 5 种浓度变化进行了比较测试：F1=1%:5%；F2=2%:4%；F3=3%:3%；F4=4%:2%；F5=5%:1%。然后对蜡烛香薰制剂的物理质量进行了评估，包括感官测试、熔点测试、燃烧时间测试和享乐测试。结果对配方 1 和配方 5 进行感官测试后，发现颜色均匀、无裂纹、气味独特，但配方 2、配方 3 和配方 4 的颜色不均匀，且有凹陷。在熔点测试中，所有配方都在标准蜡烛时间范围内，即 540 摄氏度，平均燃烧时间测试不超过 2 小时，偏好测试的是配方 5。结论：最终结果是符合所有测试标准的配方，即 5%:1% 的配方 5，其中红玫瑰和白玫瑰精油的比例为 54%:40%，石蜡和硬脂酸的比例为 54%:40%。
