Commonly used ones include industrial grade white oil, cosmetic grade white oil, medical grade white oil, food grade white oil, etc. Among them, food-grade white oil is mineral oil obtained through deep refining using hydrogenated raw materials. It has undergone two and three hydrogenation treatments in the production process.
