Abstract: CAABAY, ERiMAR A., and CANDARE, CEDRICK JESS G., Utilization and Acceptability of Used Oil in the Production of Scented Candles Research Study (General Science Curriculum), Science High School, College of Education, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, March 2010. Adviser: Mr. Renato T. Agdalpen The study entitled "Utilization and Acceptability of Used Oil in the Production of Scented Candles" was conducted from October 2009 — January 2010. Generally, the study aimed to determine if the used oil can be utilized to produce scented candles. Specifically it aimed to determine: 1) the possibility of producing scented candles mixed with used oil; 2) the acceptability of the produced scented candles in terms of texture, overall appearance, scent accuracy, brightness quality, and burn rate; and 3) the difference of the commercial scented candles to the most acceptable scented candles produced with used oil in terms of its different characteristics. There were four treatments used: Treatment 0 (T1) (commercial scented candles), Treatment I (Ti) (6OmL used oil + 40mL paraffin wax + 10mL essential oil), Treatment 2 (T2) (70mL used oil + 30mL paraffin wax + 10mL essential oil) and Treatment 3 (T3) - (80mL used oil + 20m L paraffin wax + 10mL essential oil). Ti was the best treatment among the four treatments in terms of texture, brightness quality and scent accuracy, while To was the best treatment in terms of burn rate and overall appearance. T1 essential oil obtained the highest mean score after To. It was followed by T2 and the treatment which obtained the lowest mean score was 13.
