Phazol Range
Phazol range of white oils are produced via the, servere hydrocracking, isodewax, hydrotreating and hydro-finishing process. Phazol white oils are of high purity, and complies with U.S. FDA(a) requirements. Phazol white oils, exhibit excellent UV, oxidation and thermal stability. The low volatility characteristics, ensure minimal residual volatile matter. Phazol white oils are, medicinal grades, colourless, tasteless, odourless and contain no inhibitor. Phazol white oils meet the requirements of FDA 21 CFR 178.3620(a), NF/USP. and hence it finds application in medicinal, cosmetic, food packaging containers and equipment directly contacting food.
