Introduction:
- Oleic acid is a hydrophobic compound that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents.
- It has high thermal stability and oxidation resistance.
- Oleic acid is somewhat corrosive and can react with certain metals.
Application:
1.Oleic acid is included in normal human diet as part of animal fats and vegetable oil.
2.Oleic acid as its sodium salt is a major component of soap as an emulsifying agent.
3.It is also used as emollient. Small amounts of oleic acid are used as an excipient in pharmaceuticals, 4.Oleic acid is used as an emulsifying or solubilizing agent in aerosol products.
5.Oleic acid is also used to induce lung damage in certain types of animals, for the purpose of testing new drugs and other means to treat lung diseases.
Palm oil is an edible vegetable oil derived from the mesocarp (reddish pulp) of the fruit of the oil palms, is rich in carotenoids, (pigments found in plants and animals) from which it derives its deep red colour, and the major component of its glycerides is the saturated fatty acid palmitic; hence it is a viscous semi-solid, even at tropical ambients, and a solid fat in temperate climates.

Palm oil is an edible vegetable oil made from palm fruit. Palm fruit is the source of both palm oil (extracted from the fruit) and palm kernel oil (extracted from the seeds).
It is a light-yellow liquid and semi-solid at room temperature, melting to a clear yellow liquid when heated.
Palm oil is the most costcompetitive versatile and widely produced vegetable oil The major products are CPO Crude Palm Oil various forms of PPO Processed Palm Oil and PPKO Processed Palm Kernel Oil We are committed to sustainable palm oil sourcing from Indonesia and Malaysia and to protect forests and areas of high conservation value
Refined, bleached and deodorized palm olein CP8 for international markets. Ideal for food processing, cooking, and wholesale distribution.
