The invention relates to a composition comprising C10-C20 paraffins, wherein about 3 wt. % to about 30 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition, are C10-C15 paraffins, and the C10-C20 paraffins are derived from a biological raw material. The invention also relates to a protective agent for a porous material, comprising said composition.

Composition comprising paraffins and method for producing the same

The present invention relates to a method of producing biohydrocarbons. Further, the invention relates to biohydrocarbons obtainable by the methods of the invention and to a method of producing polymers.

Method for producing biohydrocarbons

The present invention relates to a method of producing biohydrocarbons which includes providing an isomeric raw material obtained from a bio-renewable feedstock, such as by deoxygenation, hydrodeoxygenation, hydrotreatment or hydrocracking, and containing at least 65 wt. % iso-paraffins, and thermally cracking the isomeric raw material to produce biohydrocarbons at a temperature (coil outlet temperature) of at most 825&#xb0; C. The biohydrocarbons can further be polymerized to obtain bio-polymers such as polyolefins, polypropylene, polyethylene or copolymers such as polyethylene terephthalate.

A composition, including 40-50 wt-% C14 paraffins, based on the total weight of the composition, and 35-45 wt-% C15 paraffins, based on the total weight of the composition, wherein the C14 and C15 paraffins are produced from a biological raw material.
