Liquid paraffin is obtained from highly refined base oils and consists of saturated paraffinic and cycloparaffinic hydrocarbons. In the liquid paraffin purification process, aromatic compounds, sulfur and nitrogen are completely removed. The technologies used in this process lead to the production of products that, in addition to having high stability over time, are hydrophobic, colorless, odorless, and tasteless.
These products also meet the latest requirements of Indian, British and US pharmaceuticals.
