Specifications of Mineral Oil, White BP Ph Eur Grade:
Liquid Petrolatum; Liquid Paraffin
CAS 8042-47-5
DESCRIPTION
Mineral Oil, White, occurs as a colorless, transparent, oily liquid, free or nearly free from fluorescence. It is a mixture of refined liquid hydrocarbons, essentially paraffinic and naphthenic in nature, obtained from petroleum by solvent extraction and/or crystallization with subsequent purification by acid treatment and/or hydrogen treatment. It has an initial boiling point above 200C. Its average molecular weight is not less than 300. Its minimum carbon number at 5% distillation is 17. It is insoluble in water and in alcohol, is soluble in volatile oils, and is miscible with most fixed oils, but not with castor oil. It may contain any antioxidant permitted in food by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, in an amount not greater than that required to produce its intended effect.
