What Is Petroleum Jelly Used For?
A thin smear of petroleum jelly around the ground rim of a bell jar or the flange of a desiccator lid creates an airtight seal, which is essential in experiments on plant respiration, photosynthesis and drying of samples. It is also used to lubricate glass stopcocks and to seal the joints of simple gas apparatus. In biology practicals, students coat the upper or lower surface of leaves with the jelly to block the stomata and compare water loss, and in rusting experiments an iron nail greased with petroleum jelly shows how a barrier layer keeps out air and moisture.
Apply only a thin, even film with a spatula or clean fingertip; excess jelly can creep into apparatus and contaminate samples. Wipe off old grease with a dry cloth before re-applying. Its skin-softening character makes it handy in the lab for chapped hands, although it is not a substitute for gloves when handling chemicals. A pack sits comfortably among the biology lab equipment in India that schools stock for plant physiology work.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who supplies Petroleum Jelly White SCL-913/199?
Petroleum Jelly White (SCL-913/199) is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, Ambala, Haryana, India. The company sources this 500 gm paraben- and phthalate-free jelly and supplies it with laboratory apparatus to schools, colleges and institutions in India and international markets.
How much Petroleum Jelly White is in one pack?
Each pack of Petroleum Jelly White contains 500 gm. Only a thin film is needed to seal a bell-jar rim, a desiccator flange or a stopcock, so one pack lasts through a great deal of routine sealing and greasing work in a teaching lab.
Does Petroleum Jelly White contain parabens or phthalates?
No. Petroleum Jelly White is listed as paraben and phthalate-free, which is why it can also be kept in the lab as a skin-care jelly for chapped hands. Wash any chemicals off the skin before applying it, and never use it in place of gloves.
Can Petroleum Jelly White replace silicone grease on ground-glass joints?
For general school work such as sealing bell jars and easing stopcocks, Petroleum Jelly White is widely used. For vacuum distillation or apparatus exposed to organic solvents that dissolve it, ask us through the contact page about a better-suited grease before ordering.
What is the shelf life of Petroleum Jelly White?
Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Store Petroleum Jelly White closed, in a cool place away from direct heat, and use a clean spatula so the pack is not contaminated.
Can Petroleum Jelly White be ordered in bulk for many laboratories?
Yes. Petroleum Jelly White can be quoted for schools, colleges and institutions in India and international markets. Include the number of packs and each delivery point in your enquiry, together with any bell jars or desiccators you need, so everything appears on one quotation.
