How is Petrolatum produced?
Petroleum Jelly White is produced through the refining of mineral oils and waxes, resulting in a highly purified product. During this process, impurities are removed to obtain a stable and high-quality base material suitable for both medical and cosmetic applications. The outcome is a safe and reliable product that is used worldwide.
Function of Petroleum Jelly White
Petrolatum is known for its occlusive effect: it forms a protective layer on the skin that prevents moisture loss. This provides deep hydration and protects the skin from dryness. Additionally, Petroleum Jelly White functions as an emollient, making it ideal for treating dry, chapped, or sensitive skin. In pharmaceutical applications, it is often used as an ointment base or carrier for active ingredients.
