MINERAL OIL - Mineral Oil

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Mineral oil is a clear, odorless, and colorless liquid derived from petroleum. It consists of hydrocarbons and is widely used for various purposes, including as a lubricant, insulator, and as a component in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products. Due to its non-reactive and non-toxic nature, mineral oil is often used in the food industry for machinery lubrication and in the medical field as a laxative or as a base for skin creams and ointments. It is also used to preserve wooden cutting boards and utensils, as well as to protect and lubricate various mechanical and electrical components. Mineral oil is valued for its stability and inertness, but it is not suitable for high-temperature applications or where biodegradability is a concern.
