    B: Shake 1 g of it with 10 mL of water, and filter. To the


    Zinc Oxide and Salicylic Acid Paste filtrate add 1 mL of ferric chloride TS: an intense reddish violet
    color is produced. To this solution add 1 mL of acetic acid: the
    » Zinc Oxide and Salicylic Acid Paste contains not color is not dispersed. To this solution add 2 mL of 2 N
    hydrochloric acid: the color is dispersed and a white crystalline
    less than 23.5 percent and not more than 25.5 precipitate is formed.
    percent of zinc oxide (ZnO), and not less than 1.9 Minimum fill á755ñ: meets the requirements.
    percent and not more than 2.1 percent of salicylic Assay for zinc oxide—Weigh accurately in a tared porcelain
    acid (C7H6O3). crucible about 500 mg of Paste, heat gently until melted, and
    continue the heating, gradually raising the temperature until
    It may be prepared as follows: the mass is thoroughly charred. Ignite the mass strongly until
    all of the carbonaceous material has been dissipated, the
    Salicylic Acid, in fine powder................ 20 g residue is uniformly yellow, and the weight of the cooled
    residue is constant. The weight of the residue represents the
    Zinc Oxide Paste, a sufficient quantity quantity of ZnO in the weight of the Paste taken for the assay.
    Assay for salicylic acid—Transfer to a suitable beaker about

    previously neutralized with 0.1 N sodium hydroxide to a
    Thoroughly triturate the Salicylic Acid with a phenol red endpoint, and heat on a water bath for 5 minutes,
    with frequent swirling. While still hot, add phenol red TS, and
    portion of the paste, then add the remaining paste, titrate with 0.1 N sodium hydroxide VS to a red endpoint. Each
    and triturate until a smooth mixture is obtained. mL of 0.1 N sodium hydroxide is equivalent to 13.81 mg of
    salicylic acid (C7H6O3).

    Packaging and storage—Preserve in well-closed
    containers.
    Identification—
