Manufacturer's description

Primol 352 is a medicinal-grade white oil: a purified mixture of liquid saturated hydrocarbons obtained from petroleum through several refining stages, including an ultimate purification by catalytic hydrogenation. It is a colourless, transparent oily liquid, essentially odourless and tasteless, manufactured to exceed the purity requirements of the Pharmacopoeias, with superior chemical inertness giving better colour and oxidative stability than most mineral and vegetable oils when stored and used under controlled conditions. In thermoplastics, Primol 352 is recommended as a food packaging-grade plasticizer in general purpose and high-impact polystyrene, as an external lubricant for non-plasticized PVC, and as an inert, protective catalyst carrier for polypropylene processes, including as a pigment powder dispersant in master batch compounding. In elastomers and adhesives, it is used to produce food-contact or medical rubber articles such as EPDM or butyl rubber, is well suited to extending thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) such as SBS, SEBS or SEPS, and is recommended for hot-melt adhesive formulations used in sanitary products. In cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, it has well-established uses in laxative jellies and ointments, and as a component of creams and body lotions. Primol 352 is registered to NSF H1 and meets or exceeds FDA 21 CFR 178.3620(a), European Regulation (EU) 10/2011, the US Pharmacopeia/National Formulary Mineral Oil monograph, and the European Pharmacopoeia Liquid Paraffin monograph. Typical properties include a kinematic viscosity of 65.0-75.0 mm²/s at 40°C, density of 863-873 kg/m³ at 15°C, flash point ≥240°C and pour point ≤-12°C.

Applications

  • Primol 352 can be used in a variety of food-related, cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications subject to the applicable laws and regulations in each country (*). Thermoplastics • Primol 352 is recommended as a food packaging-grade plasticizer in general purpose and high impact polystyrene. Primol 352 is recommended for use as an external lubricant for non-plasticized PVC. Primol 352 is an inert and protective catalyst carrier for polypropylene processes. It can also serve as a pigment powder dispersant in master batch compounding. Elastomers and Adhesives • Primol 352 is used for producing food-contact or medical rubber articles such as EPDM or butyl rubber. It is particularly well suited for the extension of Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE), such as SBS, SEBS or SEPS. Primol 352 is also recommended for Hot-Melt Adhesives formulations used in sanitary products. Cosmetics and Pharmaceuticals • Primol 352 has many well-established applications in the pharmaceutical industry, like laxative jellies and ointments, and is also recommended as a component for many cosmetic products, such as creams and body lotions. (*) User must check compliance with applicable regulations.
