Petroleum Jelly Benefits

 

Petroleum Jelly was discovered in 1859 in Titusville, Pennsylvania, United States, on some of the country's first oil rigs. Later Robert Chesebrough, a young chemist took the unrefined black "rod wax", as the drillers called it, back to his laboratory to refine it and explore potential uses. Chesebrough discovered that by distilling the lighter, thinner oil products from the rod wax, he could create a light-colored gel. Chesebrough patented the process of making petroleum jelly by U.S. Patent 127,568 in 1872 and opened his first factory in 1870 in Brooklyn using the name Vaseline.
