EMCAplus® 140 is made up of white mineral oil. It is colorless, odorless and non- fluorescent in the light of day, meeting the FDA and USP standards for parameters for neutrality and solid paraffin, polynuclear compounds and easily carbonized substances content. The products in the EMCAplus® line are made with raw materials obtained from fractions of petroleum distillate that undergo a special treatment process, unique in Brazil, that qualifies them as USP white mineral oils of high purity. Due to their predominantly paraffinic nature, they are distributed in a wide range of viscosities. It is ideal for use in foods, agrochemicals, cosmetics and personal care, pharmacy and veterinary use, functional fluids, resins, textiles and inks, adhesives and hot melts. EMCAplus® 140 can be used as a base for body creams and lotions, tanning oils, hair oils, pomades and creams, body pomades, and light-protecting lotions, moisturizer in shaving lotions and in water/oil and oil/water emulsions.
