0. FOREWORD
0.1 This Indian Standard ( First Revision) was adopted by the IndianStandards Institution on 24 October 1980, after the draft finalized by theCosmetics Sectional Committee had been approved by the Petroleum,Coal and Related Products Division Council.
0.2 This standard was originally issued in 1968. Initial] y while reviewingthe standard the committee had agreed to indicate separately the essentialand optional requirements. Subsequently, this was found non-implemen-table for certification and therefore a single set of only requirements wasdecided to be specified. In this revision the requirements of kinematicviscosity and relative density have been dropped, A IMWrequirement oflight absorption has been added. Changes have also been made in thedescription, fluorescence and packing of the materiaL All other changesconsidered necessary to align the standard, with others in the series onraw materials fir cosmetics have also been introduced.0.3 Petroleum jelly is a soft, semi-solid material obtained from petroleumoils. It consists essentially of microcrystallh’k waxes in association withsubstantial quantities of oil.
0.4 Petroleum jelly is used in the manufacture of creams, rouges, lipsticks,lubricating creams, hair dressings, foundation creams of greasy type, etc.It is also employed as an emollient for chapped skin.
0.5 The requirement laid down in this standard cover the material for itsvarious application in the cosmetic i~dustry. Product-wise requirementshave not been laid down. ,{
0.6 For the purpose of deciding, whether a particular requirement of this
$standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, express-ing the result of a test r analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance
&with IS : 2-1960*. Th mber of significant places retained in therounded off value should be the same as that of the-specified value in thisstandard.
*Rules for raunding off numerical values ( rdwd.).

A-2. DETERMINATION OF MELTING RANGE
A-2.1 Procedure
A-2.1.1 Melt a quantity of the sample slowly while stirring until itreaches a temperature of 90”C. Remove @e source of heat’ and allowthe molten sample to cool to a temperature of 8 to 10”C above theexpected melting range. Chill the bulb of a thermometer ( range 1 to100”C ) to -5°C, wipe it dry and while it is still cold, dip. it into the moltensample so that approximately half of the bulb is submerged. Withdrawit immediately and hold it vertically away from heat until the waxsurface dulls, then dip it for five minutes into a water-bath having atemperature not higher than 16”C.
A-2.1.2 Fix the thermometer prepared in A-2.1.1 securely in a test-tube so that its lowest point .is about 15 mm above the bottom of thetest-tube. -Suspend the test-tube in a water-bath adjusted at 16°C andraise the temperature of the bath at a rate of 2 deg/min up to ;30°C, thenchange to a rate of rise of 1 deg/min and note the temperature at whichthe first drop of the melted sample leaves -the thermometer. Repeat thedetermination twice on,a ~freshly melted portion of the sample. If thevariation in three detenmkations is less than one degree take the averageof the three as the melting range. If the variation in the three determi-nations is more than one degree, make two additional determinations andtake the average of the five.

A-7. DETERMINATION OF IODINE-VALUE
A.7.O Omtline of the Metlmd – The material is treated with a knownexcess of iodine monochloride solution in glacial acetic acid. The excessof iodine monochloride is determined iod~metrically.
A-7.1 Apparatus
A-7.1.1 Thermometer — An engraved stem thermometer, calibratedbetween 10°C and 65°Cl in O-l degree intervals and with the O°C pointmarked on the stem is recommended. The thermometer shall have anauxiliary reservoir at the upper end$ and length of about 370 mrn anddiameter of about 6 mm.
A-7.2.1 Carbon Tetrac/tloride or Chloroform
A-7.2.2 Acetic Acid — glacial, 99 percent, having a melting -point of14S8°C and free from reducing im’purities. Determine the melting pointof the acetic acid and test it for reducing impunities as folbxvs:
a) Melting joint detertiation — Take a 15 crrx’long test-tube and fillit to abouttwo-thirds with the acetic aci& Insert into the-acid athermometer satisfying the requirements specified in A-72.1through a cork stopper fitting the test-tube. The amount of acidshould be at least double the quantity required to cover the bulbof the thermometer when the bottom of the latter is 12 mmfrom the bottoti of the test-tube. Suspend this tube within a“larger test-tube through a cork. Cool the acid by immersingthe assembly in ice water until the temperature is 10”C,then withdraw the assembly fr~m theice water and stir the acidrather vigorously for a few mosncn~. thus causing t&e super-cooled Iiquidto crystallize partially and. gke a mixtme of liquidand solid acid. Take thermometer readi~ every 15 secondsand record that temperature , at which the reading remainsconstant for .at least two minutes, as the true. melting point.

A-7.2.5 Slandard Sodium Thiosul~hate Solution — 0.1 N ( see IS: 2316-1968*),
A-7.2.6 Chlorine Gas — dry.
A-7.2.7 Iodine Trichloride
A-7.2.8 Wa’js Iodine Monochlonde Solution— Prepare t~k solution byone of the following two methods, and store in a glass stoppered bottlein a cool place, protected from light and sealed with paraffin untiltakenfor use:
a) Dissolve 13 g of re-sublimed iodine in 1 Iitre of acetic acid, usinggentle heat if necessary, and determine the strength by titrationwith standard sodium thiosulphate solution. Set aside 50 to100 ml of the solution and introduce washed and dried chlorinegas into the remainder until the characteristic colour changeoccurs and the halogen content ‘is nearly doubled as ascertainedagain by titration. If the halogen content has been more thandoubled reduce it by adding the requisite quantity of the iodine-acetic acid solution. A slight excess of iodine does not harm,but avoid an excess of chlorine.
Example:
If the titration of 20 ml of original iodine-acetic -acid solutionrequires 22 ml of standard sodium thiosulphate solution then20 ml of the finished Wijs solution should require-between 43 and44 ml ( and not more than 44 ml ) of the same scdurnthiosulphate solution.
b) As an alternative method for preparing Wijs solution, d~olvc8 g of iodine trichloride in approxiniately 450 ml of acetic acid.Dissolve separately :9 g of iodine in 450 ml of acetic acid usingheat if necessary. Add gradually the iodine solution to the iodinetrichloride solution until the crdour has changed to reddish.brown. Add 50 ml more of iqlinc solution and dilute the mixturewith. acetic acid till 10 ml of the mixture are equivalent to 20 mlof standard sodium thiostdphate solution when the halogencontent is estimated by titration in the presence of an excess ofpotassium iodine and water. Heat the solution at 100°C for20 minutes and cool. Prevent access of water vapour in preparingthe solution.NOTIS— The method prescribed in (a) b referable to that prescr%ed in

.
A-12.1 Apparatus
A-12.1.1 Penetrometer — Any suitable pene~ometersDecified cone to droIJ vertically without amweciab]e~0 mm and which i~dicates achrately th< ~epth ofnearest 0“1 mm. The instrument shall have a table-to carry the test
which permits thefriction for at leastpenetration to the
sample, which may be adjusted horizontal bef- making the test. Amechanism for rekasing the clamp of the loade,d cone shall be provided.
A-12.1.2 Cone — Consisting of a conical body of brass. or corrosionresistant steel with detachable hardened ‘steel tip, constructed to cdnformto the dimensions and tolerances shown in Fig. 1. The total mbving mass,namely, that of the cone and its movable attachments, shall be 150”0+0” 1 g. The attachments consist of a rigid shaft having a suitable deviceat its lower end for engaging the cone. The outer surface should bepolished to a very smooth finish.

A-12.2.1 Without disturbing the surface bf the sample; place thecontainer on the penetrometer table, and lower the cone until the tip justtouches the top surface of the sample at a spot 25 to 38 mm from theedge of the container. Adjust the zero setting and quickly release theplunger, then hold it free for 5 seconds. Secure the plunger and readthe total penetration from the scale. Make 3 or more trials each so. spacedthat there is no overlapping of the areas of penetration. Where thepenetration exceeds 20 mm use a separate container of the sample foreach trial. Read the penetration to the nearest 0s 1 mm. Calculate theaverage of the three or more readings and conduct further trials to a totalof 10 if the individual results differ from the average by more than& 3 percent.
