Formulasi Lilin Aromaterapi Berbahan Aktif Minyak Atsiri Bunga Kenanga (Cananga odorata) dan Kulit Jeruk Manis (Citrus sinensis)

Abstract

Aromatherapy is a therapeutic treatment using fragrances derived from specific materials by utilizing the extracted essential oils from plants. Cananga flowers (Cananga odorata) and sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) are known to contain essential oils with relaxation effects, stress, rapid heart rate, and for high blood pressure. The research aims to create an aromatherapy candle using the essential oils of cananga and sweet orange. The research was conducted experimentally. Essential oils were obtained using the microwave hydrodistillation method, and the identification of terpenoid compounds was used to ensure that the obtained oils were indeed essential oils. The basic candle formula was created using stearic acid and paraffin. The research results showed that the essential oil yield obtained was 0.97% for C. odorata and 1.31% for C. sinensis. Both oils obtained qualitatively contained terpenoid compounds. The evaluation of the formula with stearic acid: paraffin ratios of 10%:90% (F1), 30%:70% (F2), 50%:50% (F3), 60%:40% (F4), and 80%:20% (F5) showed that F4 had the best results with a burn time 153 minutes and a melting point 55°C. Adding essential oils to the best formula resulted in the distinctive scents of cananga and sweet orange essential oils.
