Petroleum Jelly

Petroleum  is  a plastic,  semisolid,  unctuous  hydrocarbon
mixture derived from heavy residual lubricating oil fractions  of
petroleum.   It  is essentially a colloidal system in  which  the
solid  hydrocarbon components are the external  continuous  phase
and the liquid hydrocarbons are the internal phase i.e the liquid
hydrocarbon are in the form of discrete droplets within the solid
phase.   Petroleum  may be considered as  micro  crystalline  wax
which  has  absorbed the oil, resulting in an  amorphous  swollen
jelly  like mass.  It was this physical state that  provided  its
origin  name “Petroleum jelly’ which term is still used  for  the
grades of petroleum prepared for pharmaceutical application.
