  Using stearic acid or stearin in candlemaking
Stearic acid, also known as stearin, is a long-chain fatty acid often used in candle-making.
The derivation of stearin from rendered animal fat aided the industry's transition from tallow to paraffin.
The typical proportion is 10% stearin to 90% wax by volume.

  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Theophile-Jules Pelouze
In 1848 he was made president of the Mint Commission, and in 1849 became a member of the Municipal Commission at Paris.
His work with Liebig included investigations on oenanthic ether, tannic acid, stearin, sugar, etc., and with Frémy, Cahours, and Gélis, on a series on vegetable acids, including mallic and gallic acids, and on petroleum and butyric fermentation.
He was the first to synthesize a fatty substance from glycerine and an acid; to isolate tannic acid; to identify beet-root and cane-sugar as being the same; and to make gun-cotton or nitrocellulose in France.
