  Microcrystalline Wax
  Microcrystalline Wax is a mixture of hydrocarbons of 35-50 carbons per molecule and 500-700 molecular weight. Its characteristics, compared to paraffin wax, are :
 
  Crystals are smaller, as its name implies
  Melting point is higher
  Higher viscosity in the molten state than Paraffin Wax
  Softer, although it's melting point is high
  Good adhesiveness
  Oil retaining tendency
  Applications: Textiles for Table Printing, Electric Insulation, Hotmelt Adhesives, Polish, Modification of Paraffin Wax, Paper Cups, Lamination, Rubber Antiozonant, Chewing Gum, etc.
   
  Paraffin Wax ( Type I and Type II )
  Paraffin wax is a mixture consisting mostly of straight chain hydrocarbons, with about 20 - 35 carbons in the molecule and a molecule and a molecular weight of about 300 - 500. General properties are:
 
  Hardness is such that it can be scarred with nails
  Extremely low volatility
  Viscosity in the molten state is extremely low
  Catches fire easily and burns without emitting harmful gas
  Great moisture proofing, water proofing and scent - preserving
  Latent heat of fusion is high enough to use it as heat storage materials
  Tasteless and odorless
  Easily decomposed by microbes.
  Applications: Textiles, Hotmelt Adhesives, Paper Cups, Plastics, Lubricants, Paper Converting, Rubber Antiozonant, Polish, Cosmetic & Pharmaceutical, Candles, Water-Proof Corrugated Paperboard, Chlorinated Paraffin, Matches, Rust Preventive, Plywood, etc.

  SPECIFICATION OF PETROLEUM JELLY.
 
A) CATEGORY : Pharmaceuticals Aid
B) DESCRIPTION : White translucent soft mass. Unctuous to the touch and retaining these characters on storage and when melted and allowed to cool without stirring, not more than slightly fluorescent by daylight even when melted. Odorless when rubbed on the skin.
C) SOLUBILITY : Insoluble in Water and Alcohol. Soluble in Chloroform, Solvent Ether and Light Petroleum ( boiling range 40° C to 60° C ). The solutions sometimes showing a slight opalescence.
D) STANDARDS : White Soft Paraffin is a purified mixture of semisolid hydrocar-bons obtained from Petroleum and Bleached.
E) MELTING RANGE: Between 42° C to 47° C
F) LIGHT ABSORPTION: < 0.5 ( Extinction of a 1 Cm. layer of a 0.05% w/v solution in is octane at 290 mm.)
G) FIXED OILS, FATS AND ROSIN : Passes ( Digest 10 g with 50 ml of Sodium Hydroxide solution at 100° C for thirty minutes and allow the aqueous layer to separate on acidifying the aqueous layer with dilute Sulphuric Acid no precipitate of oily matter is observed )
H) ACIDITY OR ALKALINITY : Passes ( Boil 5 g with 10 ml of alcohol previously neutralized to litmus solution the suspension is neutral to litmus solution. )
I) FOREIGN ORGANIC MATTER : Passes ( Volatilises when heated without emitting an acid odour )
J) SULPHATED ASH : < 0.1% ( Weight accurately about 0.3 g and gently boil with 150 ml of Water and 100 ml of Sodium Hydroxide solution for six hours in an ammonia distillating apparatus collecting and distillate in 40 ml of a 4.0% w/v solution of boric acid. Increase the temperature and distile about 200 ml cool add 75 ml of water distil a further 70 ml into the same receive and titrate with 0.1 N hydrochloric acid using methyl red solution as indicator. Repeat the operation without the substance being examined the difference between the titrations represent the acid require to neutralize the Methylamine formed from the Paramethadione each ml of 0.1 N hydrochloric acid is equivalent to 0.01572 g of CH11 NO3 )
K) CONSISTENCY : Between 120 to 170 in Standard Appratus at 25° C.
