MEDICAL PETROLEUM JELLY
INTRODUCTION OF MEDICAL PETROLEUM JELLY
Medical Petroleum jelly, also known as Petroleum jelly pharma grade, or Medical Vaseline is a semi-solid combination of hydrocarbons (with carbon numbers mostly greater than 25), which was first advertised as a topical treatment for its curative effects. A combination of hydrocarbons that is petroleum jelly of the pharmaceutical grade has a melting point that is often just a few degrees above the average human body temperature, or around 37 °C (99 °F).
After petroleum jelly became a standard in medicine cabinets, people started using it for a variety of illnesses in addition to aesthetic ones, such as toenail fungus, genital rashes (non-STD), nosebleeds, diaper rash, and chest colds. Due to increased scientific knowledge of acceptable and improper usage, its traditional medical usefulness as a “cure-all” has now been reduced. Petroleum jelly pharma grade is still commonly used in aesthetic skin care and is regarded as an OTC skin protectant.
When pure, it is tasteless and odorless, transparent, and colorless or pale-yellow (when not excessively distilled). It is not easily affected by chemical reagents and does not oxidize when exposed to air. Water cannot dissolve it. It is soluble in carbon disulfide, dichloromethane, chloroform, benzene, diethyl ether, and oil of turpentine. Pharma Pet Jelly, which PetroNaft provides, is a blend of highly refined and processed hydrocarbons with no discernible odor. The provided products adhere to IP, BP, USP, and EP, among other international standards and pharmacopoeias.
Petronaft exports the highest-quality Medical Petroleum Jelly / Petroleum Jelly Pharma Grade / Medical Vaseline in different grades from Iran, Turkey, and the UAE to other countries around the world.
