Product Description

Light Liquid Paraffin, also known as mineral oil, is a clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid derived from petroleum. It is a mixture of various hydrocarbons, predominantly consisting of saturated aliphatic and alicyclic hydrocarbons. Light Liquid Paraffin is highly refined to remove impurities and odor, resulting in a product with excellent stability and purity. Due to its inert nature and low reactivity, Light Liquid Paraffin finds widespread use in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and personal care products. It is commonly used as an emollient in skincare formulations, where it helps to moisturize and protect the skin by forming a barrier on its surface. Light Liquid Paraffin is also utilized as a lubricant in various industrial applications, including the manufacture of rubber, plastics, and textiles.

Additionally, it serves as a carrier oil in aromatherapy and massage oils due to its non-comedogenic properties and ability to glide smoothly on the skin. Light Liquid Paraffin is considered safe for external use but should not be ingested. Proper handling procedures should be followed to prevent skin contact and inhalation of vapors
