Abstract: Wax precipitation was studied in solutions of wax in concentrations of 10-60% by weight in two hydrocarbon solvents. It is shown that the model solutions prepared with diesel fuel have higher values of saturation temperature compared with the solutions prepared on kerosene. Studies have shown that increasing the concentration of wax in solution leads to an increase of the saturation temperature. Article describes that the addition of impurities to the solutions leads to an increase of the saturation temperature. A comparison was made by processing research data obtained by two independent research methods (visual and rheological). It is shown that the saturation temperature obtained by rheological method is higher on average for 1°C than the saturation temperature obtained by the visual method.
